fairyWe are delighted to announce the performance of an original composition by Barbara Amell, "Dealings with the Faeries," six pieces for piano inspired by the six tales in MacDonald's book by the same name.  Barbara has been serving as editor of Wingfold, a George MacDonald quarterly publication, since 1993. She has been remarkably successful in locating nineteenth century newspaper and magazine articles on MacDonald and sharing them with readers of Wingfold. Barbara has written many articles on George MacDonald, edited books on MacDonald's works, and composed songs inspired by his poems.  She has authored several books, including: George MacDonald on the Logic of Faith, George MacDonald: the Illustrated Poems, and The Art of God: Lectures on the Great Poets by George MacDonald.
