The Nightingale
Hans Christian Andersen
“Music is the voice of the soul.” In The Nightingale, Hans Christian Andersen weaves a timeless fable of authenticity, beauty, and redemption. Set in an enchanted vision of imperial China, the story follows a humble nightingale whose song captivates the hearts of all who hear it—even the mighty emperor himself. When an ornate artificial bird replaces the real one at court, the soul-stirring power of nature is cast aside in favor of predictable perfection. But when illness and death come for the emperor, only the return of the living nightingale's song can offer healing and hope. Narrated with grace by Clare Staniforth, this moving tale reminds listeners of the healing power of art, the danger of vanity, and the importance of staying true to the heart.
