The Composer Is Dead

Utterly brilliant! I loved this short engaging book and CD. Extremely funny and a great introduction to the orchestra for children.

Clever introduction to all of the instruments of the orchestra, and what a wonderful, lilting listing of famous composers!

Did not listen to the accompanying album.

This is the companion piece to an audiobook / symphony; I didn't realize this at first since the audio part isn't included with the Kindle version. It works better with the audio.

Anyway it's a cute kids' book that talks about and demonstrates the role of each instrument/section in an orchestra.
