Discover the magical world of\u00a0Carnival of the Animals<\/i>\u00a0in this musical reimagining of this celebrated suite for children \u2013 push the button in each breathtaking scene to hear the vivid sound of an orchestra playing from Camille Saint-Sa\u00ebns\u2019 score.<\/b><\/p>\n

One day,\u00a0two brothers discover a magical animal kingdom behind their bookcase<\/b>. They are greeted by the royal lion with his shaggy mane; ask for directions from an old lonely tortoise; take a ride on some lumbering elephants; topple a skeleton of dinosaur bones; and swim among a school of shimmering fish. If only they could take them all home...<\/p>\n

The book includes extracts from \u2018The Swan\u2019, \u2018Aquarium\u2019, \u2018Fossils\u2019, and \u2018Finale\u2019 (From Disney\u2019s\u00a0Fantasia<\/i>) along with a totally new story to link the pieces together.
\n\"\"
\nAs you and your little one journey through the magical scenes, you will\u00a0press the buttons to hear 10 excerpts from the suite\u2019s music<\/b>. At the back of the book, find a short biography of the composer, Camille Saint-Sa\u00ebns, with details about his composition of\u00a0Carnival of the Animals<\/i>. Next to this, you can replay the musical excerpts and, for each of them, read a\u00a0discussion of the instruments, rhythms and musical techniques<\/b>\u00a0that make them so powerful. A\u00a0glossary<\/b>\u00a0defines musical terms.<\/p>\n

The Story Orchestra series<\/b> brings classical music to life for children through gorgeously illustrated re-tellings of classic ballet, opera and program music stories paired with 10-second sound clips of orchestras playing from their musical scores. With The Story Orchestra keyboard sound books, children can play the famous melodies themselves with the sound of a real grand piano.<\/p>\n

Beautifully presented and makes a wonderful gift.<\/p>\n
