Two musical tales, two very different kings. In Le Roi qui n’aimait pas la musique, a cantankerous monarch outlaws all sound—until a mysterious boy teaches him to listen. In Le Roi qui aimait Joséphine, his grandson discovers love, dancing, and a world beyond the palace gates. These witty, touching stories by author Mathieu Laine come to life in the voice of legendary actor Marthe Keller, with composer Karol Beffa at the piano and a trio of top young musicians.
