Welcome to the wonderful world of William Shakespeare. CSA Word presents a collection of extracts from all of The bard's plays; from Hamlet to Cymbeline, and Romeo and Juliet to Pericles. This truly comprehensive selection includes many of Shakespeare's most famous and familiar speeches, together with other lesser-known revelations and some music, songs and sonnets too. The source extracts are linked by an informative and well-researched commentary written and read by actors and creators of this project, Richard Hampton and David Weston. They provide an ideal, beautifully performed introduction to Shakespeare's plays, and a glimpse of the man himself with many fascinating facts and little-known information.
The CD edition of Shakespeare: his Life and Work will prove an excellent guide and reference for the student of Shakespeare, but perhaps more importantly it is accessible to all listeners and serves as a unique celebration of Shakespeare's works, relaying how beautiful his timeless words and truths can sound given the very best treatment.
