THE PRETTIEST SONG IN THE WORLD

Week 03


Dame May Whitty

Description

Dame May Whitty (1865-1948) narrates this sweet story about a little boy who decides he is going to find out what the prettiest song in the world is. Born in Liverpool, Mary Louise Whitty was an Oscar-nominated English theatre and cinema actress.  This recording and Rapunzel (see Week 39 in 2006) were both made shortly before she passed away.  The Sportsmen are credited as the vocalists.
