Maybe the best kind of music to fit Lewis Carroll would be Nursery Rhymes or Music Boxes. Theres a very good CD by a French band called KLIMPEREI who do this...
Definitely recommended to all serious Alice collectors is the Multimedia CD by David Neal,in which he not only reads the story---full version too---but uses...

Hi Jenny, ... And this was my reply, which you maybe missed. It does try to answer your question, so I will post it again: He seems to have liked Beethoven....
... I didn't miss your reply, and it was a very good reply and to the point, but it just happened that "seeming" to like what is arguably the world's major...
