Musical selection and explanatory texts Ana Gerhard Illustrations Margarita Sada

Sea, lake, river, storm… These words have always stimulated the imagination of many composers. In this compilation, Beethoven, Bach, Schubert, and others introduce children to classical music. Through works that evoke the fluidity, dynamism, and rhythmic diversity of water, young listeners discover the quality of great artistic creations. Wonderfully illustrated, the book also contains a glossary of musical terms and short biographies of the composers. A most original aquatic experience!

20 excerpts of recordings performed by internationally renowned orchestras, including the Orchestre national de Lyon, the Toronto New Music Ensemble, and the London Symphony Orchestra.

The accompanying text and musical excerpts allow one to grasp the essence of these creations. LE DEVOIR
