Musical selection and explanatory text Ana Gerhard Illustrations Cecilia Varela

Birds have always stimulated the imagination of composers and served as their inspiration. In this compilation, works by Mozart, Tchaikovsky, and others introduce children to classical music. Young listeners will discover the melodic similarities between sounds produced by instruments and the song of the swan, the nightingale, or the lark. Wonderfully illustrated, the book also includes a glossary of musical terms and short biographies of the composers. An accessible and enriching sound journey!

20 excerpts from recordings of pieces performed by world-renowned orchestras, including the London Symphony Orchestra, the Moscow Radio Symphony Orchestra, and the Toronto Chamber Orchestra.

An excellent way to unlock the mysteries of classical music! ASTRAPI
