The concert is about to begin!</b> <p/> "An ideal way to introduce children to the magic of music--delightful, charming, wonderfully entertaining, beautifully illustrated."--Gerard Schwarz, Music Director, the All-Star Orchestra <p/> Discover what a symphony is.

And when you should and shouldn't clap. <br> Here is a unique, interactive introduction to the world of classical music, presenting one of the most famous symphonies ever written, by one the most famous composers who ever lived. <p/> With its 19-button sound panel, you'll hear the different parts and voices of the music--the beginning of Symphony No. 5, the melody, the harmony, the sounds made by a violin, a viola, a cello, a double bass, and more. And you can even sing along. <p/><b>Note to parents: </b>The secret to raising a child to love and appreciate classical music isn't a secret at all. You just need to listen with your child and be a willing explorer. Talk about what you hear. Marvel at the sounds. Try to identify the instruments--and have fun with it! <br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An ideal way to introduce children to the magic of music--delightful, charming, wonderfully entertaining, beautifully illustrated." <br> -Gerard Schwarz, music director, The All-Star Orchestra and music director laureate, Seattle Symphony <p/> <br> --Gerard Schwarz<br><br>"A delight for kids of any age!
