Category Description for Beethoven's Wig: Sing Along Symphonies:

Wow - talk about fun and energizing music! I have never been a real big classical music fan, but after listening to these CD's, I'm hooked! These symphonies are done with outrageously funny lyrics set to great classical music! They are filled with fact and fancy about the world's most notable composers and their masterpieces. Sing along with 'Beethoven's Wig' to his 5th Symphony, 'Tchaikovsky's Cannonball' to his 1812 Overture, 'Stuck in the Saddle Again' to Suppe's Light Cavalry Overture, and more. There are 11 symphonies per CD . Also included are the lyrics so you can sing along, and there are 2 questions at the bottom of each page with answers in the back. There are also suggested activities for each symphony. Once you have sung along, there is also an Orchestral Performance of each symphony without the lyrics. These CD's have won several awards including Parent's Choice Award and the NAPPA Gold Award. ~ Phyllis

Love this series. It sticks in your head with the catchy lyrics. Its a dancing around the kitchen type of CD!! Another great introduction to the classics. I remember the glee of my daughter when she first recognized one of these songs in its original format!

We love these cd's I've rented them from the library but now I want to make them part of our permanent collection As far as the "derierre" word I've always tried to offer my boys many words for one meaning I'm sure they'll get a kick out of the word once they realize what it means For now we simply enjoy the music I love how they also provide the music without the words

We own volumes 1 and 2 which we enjoy One of my children did not like the music in volume 3 so we didn't purchase that one The sound quality is very good on these CDs Please consider the following however: (1) The words are meant to be silly You may not like the word choice or attitude For example one song (probably volume 1) says "Shake shake shake your derriere" (2) Each song includes the name of the piece's composer However you will not necessarily learn the name of the piece just by listening to the CD Compare this to Classical Magic's products (although their sound quality is not as good) With Beethoven's Wig you'll have to consult the CD case (unless you know it all already) We also enjoy Classical Magic's products If I had to choose one I'd choose Classical Magic's

We love Beethoven's Wig CD's!! We now own all 3! My children have enjoyed singing the silly songs set to classical music I have enjoyed the fact that they are learning something in the process! My kids (ages 6-9) can now identify the composers and titles of these songs when they hear them without the silly words!
