About this listen

Orpheus is young musician who holds magical powers over nature and people, and must travel deep into the Underworld to try to persuade Hades to allow him to bring his wife home again.

Follow the tale as Orpheus joins the Argonauts on their quest, captivates gods and goddesses with his music and song, and completes one of the most challenging journeys in all of Greek mythology.
