What Great Music!
Classical Selections to Hear and to See
Based on the Music Learning Theory of Edwin E. Gordon
Edited by Andrea Apostoli.
Illustrated by Alexandra Dufey
CD and CD-sized picture book

This CD and accompanying picture book are the perfect way to explore the world of great classical music with young children. The music on the CD has been carefully chosen for its brevity, variety and complexity: perfect for young minds. Each selection links to a delightful illustration and brief line of verse in the full-color booklet.

The illustrations and short texts accompanying each track provide the means to involve children in listening and to allow them to approach musical instruments, learning to recognize them by the sound they produce, by their shape and by their name.

This is a perfect way for kids to immerse themselves in the world of music. Adults know that the selections meet the criteria of world-renowned music educator Edwin E. Gordon, laying the foundation for a child's lifelong connection to music and great music making. Bring musical meaning and connection to the young ones in your life!

For children from 0 to 6 years old.
