<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p> <i>...an intelligent book, neatly executed, and just insouciant enough to maintain adult interest</i></br> -- The Toronto Globe and Mail </p><p> <i>The Orchestra</i>, a non-fiction book for children, introduces musical instruments, basic musical concepts and the symphonic orchestra. The very straight-forward text is accompanied by playful, but accurate, drawings. A number of musical concepts are explored, among them harmony, tempo and dynamics. The role of the composer and conductor are explored and each musical instrument described. A subplot, apparent only through the illustrations, shows two children who wend their way through the orchestra's rehearsal, visiting the instrument families, and culminates in a full-dress concert. </p><p> Comprehensive, but simple in its approach, the book combines solid information with an enjoyable format. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p> Mark Rubin has produced a number of films and television shows for young children. Victor Feldbrill, conductor of the Toronto Symphony program for young children, has reviewed the text for accuracy. </p><p> Alan Daniel has illustrated a number of books, among them <i>Flying and Swimming Creatures</i> and <i>The Bait Chopper</i>. </p>
