"At least the equal of Puccini."

A tiny elf, who lives within a rose in a large garden, witnesses a violent murder. Forever changed—moved, bewildered, affected—the elf strives to give comfort and closure to the victim's beloved. The incredibly rich world of Hans Christian Andersen's fantastical tale is brought to vivid life by the music of David Hertzberg, hailed as "an absolute phenomenon. Such lush, decadent musical passages and ecstatic vocal lines I've rarely heard from a young composer. Hertzberg gave us splendid moments when I was sure I was hearing something straight out of the late Romantic period." - Parterre
