The Composer is Dead

The Composer Is Dead is both an entertaining murder mystery as well as a perfect resource to introduce the instruments of the orchestra! In the style of "Peter and the Wolf" or "A Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra," this engaging book and CD feature sections of the orchestra demonstrating their unique sounds while providing an alibi to propel the story forward.

Join the Inspector (voiced by Lemony Snicket) as he questions all the unusual suspects. Then listen to the enclosed CD featuring the music of Nathaniel Stookey performed by the San Francisco Symphony.
