Harpists have rest bars. Many of them. 
​One day, Magdalena decides to use them and to allow her imagination to run wild. Train trips are being used equally actively.
Encouraged by her friend Aleksey Igudesman, she then also puts these fantasies to paper; now, there is a whole collection of absurd stories and drawings.
Some of them inspire new works of art in turn, when Aleksey composes music for them and performes them with Magdalena.
More projects are in the pipeline.

I can assure you, all these animals are real. But they do look and sound as if they are made up and that is why I asked the gifted writer, artist and harp player, Magdalena Hoffmann, to create texts and pictures that reflect the crazy lives of these wonderful creatures.
From Aleksey Igudesman's preface
