I Love to Hear the Sounds

Kathy Reid-Naiman's new recording continues in the tradition of Ella Mae Jenkins, Pete Seeger, and Mike and Peggy Seeger's recordings of folk songs for children. Her lifelong commitment to introducing children to traditional music and a broad musical vocabulary shines through in this recording that every family with young children ought to have.

The songs on this CD have been selected to be used with rhythm instruments such as sticks, bells, shakers, sand blocks, and drums. Songs range from traditional to adaptations of older songs to new songs. A few spoken nursery rhymes are also included. Instrumental versions at the end of the recording allow you to adapt the songs for different instruments.
