“It’s a little known secret some fairies change color when the seasons turn and that is how I first met the purple fairies.”
Storyfair Productions is thrilled to announce the release of the children’s jazz CD, more rocky mountain fairy tales, the highly anticipated follow up to the very successful original rocky mountain fairy tales. The new disc continues the much-loved stories of outdoor adventure while introducing kids to the purple fairies and the funky rhythms of jazz.
Project creator Samantha Whelan Kotkas spent the last two years developing and producing this project. A collaboration with fellow Calgarian, Tyler Hornby – a jazz drummer and composer – brought the stories musically to life. The resulting 68-minute recording features four original narrated stories, four original catchy jazz tunes and showcases some of Alberta’s finest jazz musicians.
