Overview
Parcourez tous les continents pour découvrir comment les meilleurs musiciens de la nature utilisent leur voix et leur corps pour créer une symphonie.
Sur les scènes du monde entier, les gibbons adorent chanter au lever du soleil alors que les baleines à bosse fredonnent la même chanson toute la journée. Les loups ont l’habitude de former un chœur avant de partir à la chasse et la grenouille Odorrana tormota a le talent particulier de pouvoir interpréter une chanson sans produire deux notes identiques. Ce livre fascinant contient également de l’information sur les caractéristiques, l’habitat et les comportements des 14 grands musiciens animaliers sélectionnés.
Un hyperlien imprimé sur la couverture du livre donne accès à une écoute en ligne des enregistrements des sons produits par ces animaux.
On the world stage, gibbons love to break into song at sunrise, while humpback whales prefer to perform the same tune for an entire day. Wolves enjoy choir singing before setting off to hunt, and Chinese torrent frogs are excellent at carrying a tune without ever producing two identical notes. Additional information on the characteristics, habitats, and behaviors of these 14 animal virtuosos is included. Recordings of the sounds produced by each featured animal are available online.
