Product Description
The award-winning Classical Kids series introduces children -- and adults -- to the joys of classical music. A dramatic story, a little bit of history and the world's best-loved classical music set the scene for these fun-filled musical adventures.
A celebration of poetry, song and classical music. The story follows a family from playtime to dreamtime as they journey through the nursery, the park, the streets of Olde London and then off to bed. A rich variety of great classical lullabies, rounds for family singing and traditional English songs as well as pieces from the Leider, Romantic Opera and Classical Orchestral traditions are featured.
Excerpts from Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Vivaldi, Schubert, Pachelbel and Tchaikovsky are woven into a colourful musical collage with classic poetry from three centuries - William Blake (1700s), Eugene Fields (1800s) and Dennis Lee (1900s) - with poems written and performed by today's children.

impossible to describe -- bits of classical music, children's rhymes, choir songs, and lullabies all performed as if by the most accomplished symphony on earth. heard it on an npr station while away, and bought it months later, that's how haunting it was. great for any age -- newborn to 100
By Rafid Haidar
Format:Audio CD
This one of the worst CDs I have bought in a long time. I have listened to it once and will never listen to it again. I bought it based on the other good reviews that this CD received. I thought it would consist of soft classical music of the 'berceuse' type, instead it consists of songs that are sung in the 19 th century traditional English style. They are only loosely based on a classical theme. If you like this type of music that's fine but others beware, this is not a classical music CD in the sense of the word that most us associate as classical

The best CD I have ever heard. We received it as a gift a few years ago. It consistently brings tears to the eyes and joy to the heart. This should be a perennial best seller. Read more
