Publisher Description: This lyrical romp through the orchestra begins with animal musicians slowly gathering for the evening performance. Poetic descriptions suggest the sounds of the instruments, and lively watercolor illustrations capture the playful essence of each musician and musical instrument. "It's a smashing introduction to classical music, and a must prior to a first visit to the symphony."--Publishers Weekly |
