Additional Notes

As referenced in part one of “The Snow Queen,” Hans Christian Andersen’s version is very different from Disney’s Frozen, which is in part why we love bringing you the original versions (or very close to the original).

Here you’ll hear a whole host of interesting characters and situations that give the fairy tale its own distinct flavor, even as you get many familiar themes.
