<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>An illustrated book with a 28-minute CD, Grunt combines Boynton's inimitable way with pigs and other farm animals and a satirical sense that comes deliciously out of left field. Play it whenever you're feeling disgruntled. Full-color illustrations throughout.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>A delightfully silly, good-natured parody of the recording phenomenon Chant and other works that put Gregorian music on the charts, <i>Grunt</i> is a book and CD set that combines Sandra Boynton's inimitable way with farm animals and a satirical sense that comes deliciously out of left barn. <p/>In a far-off valley live the obeisant Domoinkan Pigs of Snouto Domoinko de Silo. Here, twelve times a day, these simple swine grunt the unadorned, ethereal music of Pigorian Chant (translation included). For occasions from the first mealtime (Op-slay ime-tay. Et's lay eat-ay. Um yay, um-yay.) to Nox Animaliae, when they're joined by all the animals in a harmony that dates back before the time of Caesar Hogustus, the pigs chant. <p/>Listen, look at Sandra Boynton's delicious illustrations, and laugh. It's what to play whenever you're feeling disgruntled.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>Here, for the first and probably only time anywhere, is the definitive text and recording of the sublime yet humble monophony of the Sincere Pigs from the ancient farmstead, Snouto Domoinko de Silo. Intoned in the original Pig Latin, with antiphonal responsoria and commentaria in Latin by the lesser barnyard animals, and featuring the ethereal polyphony of chickens, this music is not to be soon forgotten.
