Summary

A reimagining of Hans Christian Andersen’s timeless fairytale,Wild Swans weaves spoken word and music into a spellbinding journey of courage, sacrifice, and transformation. 
When a young princess learns her eleven brothers have been cursed and turned into swans, she undertakes a perilous quest to save them. Bound by a vow of silence, guided only by her heart, and tested by the cruelty of those who fear what they cannot understand. 
Read by John Suchet OBE, acclaimed journalist and broadcaster, this version is interwoven with the shimmering beauty of Elena Kats-Chernin’s ballet score, newly adapted for trombone and piano. The result is part audiobook, part musical journey: a modern storytelling tapestry where words and music are inseparable. 
Perfect for lovers of classical music, fairytales, and richly told adventures, Wild Swans invites you to hear a story you thought you knew… as you’ve never heard it before.
