Lewis Carroll - The Hunting Of The Snark & Documentary (1992)







BBC R3 - Lewis Carroll's 'The Hunting Of The Snark'
Adapted by Michael Bakewell
Music by Steven Pone
Directed by Rosemary Hart
Broadcast May 4, 1992
Coded from tape at 128/44.1

This programme had two elements when broadcast:

1 A documentary about the poem and its illustrations.

2 The poem adapted as 'A work for five voices'

For convenience I've split it into these two parts, but
deleted nothing between the two pieces, so, purists
can easily reassemble it into a single file.


Cast
Narrator - Alan Bennett
Bellman - Paul Daneman
Baker - David Collings
Butcher - David King
Snark - Peter Penry-Jones
