Little Stories of Great Composers That's My Piano, Sir!: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, (Hardcover)

Meet classical composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in this charming semi-autobiographical tale. Travel through time following a charming little mouse called Minim who loves cheese and music. One day, he witnesses the arrival of a dapper, young Mozart and his family as they set foot on a dock one late, cold night. He is no ordinary boy, sporting a white wig and dressed in red velvet, on his way to play several concerts in the city. To the surprise of all, he begins to play with his sister for the tired customs officer and gloomy dockworkers. The evening air comes to life, and soon, everyone's faces are beaming, their ears ringing with music! In addition to the illustrated story and introductory notes on the composer, an accompanying CD (and a unique digital download code) features recordings of the narrated story and the performance of the composition "A Little Night Music" ("Eine Kleine Nachtmusik"). A free teaching guide is available at www.thesecretmountain.com. Part of the Little Stories of Great Composers series, featuring Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Vivaldi, Haydn, Schubert, and Paganini.
