Description
In this charming introduction to the orchestra, a child in the role of conductor brings together a playroom's worth of musicians to demonstrate the sounds and characteristics of nine common instruments. Even if young readers and listeners have yet to experience such instruments in real life, they will undoutedly follow author and music teacher Janna Matthies's invitation to bwap, wheetle, and CRASH along with the cuddly and familiar figures of stuffed animals as they all make their way to an imagined stage where everyone has a role.
Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
Where do people get the ideas for their books? Well, it probably doesn't hurt that Janna Matthies actually works with a symphony orchestra in Ohio. Her passion is getting kids to hear live orchestral music. In this very simple book, the whole thing works as an introduction to what you would encounter as hear the orchestra. The book has a rhyming text and offers a little preview of the different instruments, invoking a sense of them. Consider this an invitation to hear and play this type of music and engage in something that can (let's face it) feel a little intimidating.
