Butterflies, Dreams and Rhymes is a children’s fantasy song cycle, mixing live action and animation with a child’s voyage of discovery through a gallery of paintings. The magical journey is accompanied by special musical arrangements of traditional nursery rhymes and folk songs, all performed by the Nash Ensemble.
