Description

From the author of Welcome to the Opera and Welcome to Jazz, this musical picture book introduces children ages 4 to 8 to the wonders of classical music with 19 interactive sound buttons. Please take your seat. The concert is about to begin! Discover what a symphony is, who Beethoven was, what happens when a conductor takes the podium and faces of the orchestra, and when you should and shouldn’t clap during a performance. Welcome to the Symphony is a unique, interactive introduction to classical music, presenting one of the most famous symphonies ever written, by one the most famous composers who ever lived. With 19 sound buttons, you’ll hear the different parts and voices of the music—the beginning of “Symphony No. 5”, the melody, the harmony, the sounds made by a violin, a viola, a cello, a double bass, and more. And you can even sing along! Welcome to the Symphony is the first book in music educator Carolyn Sloan’s hugely successful Welcome to ... sound button picture book series that introduces classic musical genres to young readers, followed by Welcome to Jazz and Welcome to the Opera. “An ideal way to introduce children to the magic of music—delightful, charming, wonderfully entertaining, beautifully illustrated.” —Gerard Schwarz, Music Director, the All-Star Orchestra Read more

  • Great introduction to symphony
Format: Hardcover
12.30.23 I got my grandniece a child's xylophone. Not that they need to be bought together, but this is a good introduction to music. The packaging was secure with no inner or outer damage. The design is very pretty and colorful. The notes match the found of the instruments. The book opens to the left and the instrument buttons are on the right. I highly recommend this as a tool for children and as play for adults. I definitely will buy this again. ... show more

  • Great content and sound
Format: Hardcover
My kids love music books. This gave me the opportunity to keep their interest in classical music as well as give them more context in how symphonies work. They love it!

  • Love this music book
Format: Hardcover
There is no plastic tab to pull out to start the batteries. Below the battery case is a black switch that if you look carefully says on and off. Once I found that it was off to the orchestra! My 9 year old wants to be a maestro when she grows up and this was so bright and fun. Also it wasn't too loud or too soft@ Great buy. ... show more

  • Enthralling for a toddler who loves music and dance
Format: Hardcover
My 2-year-old grandson LOVES this book and entertains himself in his bed in the morning by playing the music and looking at the pages for up to an hour. The first book he wants to read in the evening too. “Bate-HO-ven” is his favorite composer :).

  • Very nice book
Format: Hardcover
This book is nicely written. Has beautiful illustrations and the sound buttons are easily used. Its got a nice storyline and the pages are good quality. Super nice book for a older child maybe 4-5 years old. My 9month old just tried to rip it.
