PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Join the King and Queen as they throw a party for their new baby, Princess Aurora. But when a terrible guest arrives and places a curse on princess, the kingdom must find the one special person who can defeat it… As you and your little one journey through the magical scenes illustrated by artist Jessica Courtney Tickle, you will press the buttons to hear 10 excerpts from the ballet’s music.

At the back of the book, find a short biography of the composer, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, with details about his composition of Swan Lake. Next to this, you can replay the musical excerpts and, for each of them, read a discussion of the instruments, rhythms, and musical techniques that make them so powerful. A glossary defines musical terms.

The Story Orchestra series brings classical music to life for children through gorgeously illustrated retellings of classic ballet stories paired with 10-second sound clips of orchestras playing from their musical scores.

Manufacturer's note: please pull the white tab out of the back of the book before use. Sound buttons require a firm push in exact location to work, which may be hard for young children. All sound clips are 10 seconds long.

Gorgeous Book

This book’s illustrations are beautiful. That’s what originally drew me in, but the little facts and stories are extremely interested. Bought this for my niece but I think I’m keeping it for myself !!

We. Are. Obsessed!

I bought the The Orchestra Swan Lake book for my little ballerina loving girl and a Swan Lake Maileg mouse and she LOVES them! We are first timers and we love the quality of the mouse and how adorably well made it is! I am buying more for her birthday!!

Great book

This book is so lovely. I bought it for my three year old and both my three year old and one year old girls love it. The buttons are hard to push for a child but ok for an adult. The illustrations are beautiful and the story is on the shorter side (a plus for our girls ages) but is told very well. Very happy with it!
