Overview
Un guide quatre étoiles pour initier les enfants à la musique classique.
Les araignées, les papillons, les guêpes, les grenouilles… Beaucoup de ces bestioles, que ce soit des insectes ou des petits animaux, ont nourri l’imaginaire des musiciens de toutes les époques. Des œuvres de Beethoven, de Bartók, de Ravel et d’autres compositeurs feront découvrir la musique classique aux enfants en les initiant à ce répertoire d’inspiration animale.
Merveilleusement illustré, le livre contient également un glossaire de termes musicaux, un guide d’écoute et une courte biographie de chaque compositeur. Le disque propose vingt extraits de divers enregistrements de pièces exécutées par des maîtres de renommée internationale, dont l’Orchestre national royal d’Écosse, l’Orchestre symphonique Simón Bolívar et l’Ensemble baroque ORFEO.
The works of Beethoven, Ravel, Prokofiev, and others are introduced to children by demonstrating how insects, arachnids, and amphibians, such as spiders, wasps, butterflies, frogs, and snakes, have inspired the composers. This book pairs five centuries of music history with stunning and evocative illustrations of these fascinating little creatures. A glossary of musical terms and a short biography of each composer are included along with a CD (plus a unique code for the digital download) of 20 excerpts from various recordings performed by world-class luminaries, including the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, the Liverpool Philharmonic, and the Nashville Symphony.
