The Angel's choir is from a melody by Brahms: Waltz in A Flat, Op.39 No.15.

Thank you for posting. I have always loved this version of the Little Match girl. Only the real version of the little Danish match girl who sees her beloved Grandma looking more beautiful than she ever had in life, who picks her up and takes her up to God, is more sad than this:) So thanks again!!

Thank you so much for posting this.
I've never seen this before and I must admit it's very touching and beautiful. I'm glad I didn't see this as a kid - it would have bothered me to see how she's treated. Granted, the ending is wonderful but it still would have bothered me. Bambi was bad enough.
Cartoons today are nothing compared to this.

@coffeecub Pixar, Dreamworks and other 3D animation companies for that matter. Sure, 3D animation is all right every once in a while, but because of its constant bombardment in cinema nowadays we have lost a great art that it 2D animation done with real ink.

That was my first time ever seeing this version. After reading about this cartoon for years, I finally got a chance to see it. Thank you for posting this. It's a beautiful cartoon and my heart truly goes out to that adorable little girl. This is definitely in need of a restoration.

This has to be the saddest Christmas story ever written.

I had this cartoon burned into my memory ever since the Christmas I was 5. It taught me compassion for other children. Looking back at it nearly 30 years later brings tears to a grown man's eyes. So glad to finally rediscover it. True animation comes from the human soul, not some darn graphics card.
