	Click opera - Singing, Ringing Tree
		This was indeed a strange and magical series, a saga filled with malevolent dwarves, sea monsters, hump-backed bridges, unicorns, princesses and the singing tree of the title.
		There was some unease in East Germany with the fact that The Singing, Ringing Tree -- with its princes and princesses, unicorns and dwarves -- wasn't simple propaganda for the socialist lifestyle.
		Is it really important that Singing, Ringing Tree originated in a different time, a different political and financial structure and was made in a different language (the original German could still be heard when it was transmitted in Britain, with a man's voice narrating events and dialogue, which added to the already-strong verfremdungseffekt)?

		He succeeds in creating his masterpiece and everyone is wowed by the statue singing in church on the day it was installed....but that is the last time the fir tree, now a statue, sang.
		I believe the real moral of the story is that when we refuse to see the spirituality inherent in every living thing and disregard that spirit by attempting to shape it into our short-sighted image of what spirituality is all about, we wind up disconnected from the true source of spiritual power.

	Hans Christian Andersen: The Bell
		It was a wisdom owl, which continually knocked its head against the tree, but he was unable to say with certainty whether its head or the hollow trunk of the tree was the cause of the noise.
		The sun was shining, the birds were singing, and the confirmed children sang too, holding each other by the hand, for they had no position yet, and they were all equal in the eyes of God.
		They came to a hut built of the bark of trees and branches; a large crab-apple tree spread its branches over it, as if it intended to pour all its fruit on the roof, upon which roses were blooming; the long boughs covered the gable, where a little bell was hanging.

		In hushed conversations around Britain, devotees of the Singing Ringing Tree, now perhaps in their late thirties or early forties, try to come to terms with one of the great traumas of postwar childhood.
		This programme reveals why it was that the BBC saw fit to import a terrifying Communist fairy tale, and why the East Germans themselves struggled to work out how a superbly arrogant princess and lots of strange magical animals could promote world revolution.
