Album Review

The Toronto Philharmonic plays excerpts from many well-known classical pieces while Ustinov explains the different sections of the orchestra (woodwinds, strings, etc.), the parts of music (dynamic, tempo, etc.), and the "feel" of music (sad, silly, etc.) in an easy-to-understand and entertaining way...Winner of the Parents' Choice Gold Seal Award and the ALA Notable.
