"An introduction to one of the greatest of all classical works that quite wondrously includes not just words and pictures, but some of the music itself. And to think that the musicians playing the excerpts are young people as well, members of the New York Youth Symphony! What could be more inspiring?"–Ted Libbey, author of The NPR Listener's Encyclopedia of Classical Music

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!
5.0 out of 5 stars Must buy
What a fantastic book to get my 2.5 year old to further explore his passion for music. We don't do screen time so books especially interactive books are a real treat for him. This is both enjoyable and educational. Bravo
5.0 out of 5 stars Toddler loves it!!!
My 2yo LOVES it and can’t wait to “read” it every day. Wonderful way to introduce toddlers to music and various musical instruments.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great book to learn about musical instruments
This is a great book to start little ones on musical instruments and symphony. The drawings are beautiful and story telling from the little mice is engaging. My 2.5 years old loved the book immediately and enjoy pressing the buttons to hear the different instruments. Very informative and would recommend.
4.0 out of 5 stars Symphony for Kids
I was excited about getting this. But sound is super quiet, even with new batteries, and sounds very cheapishly animated, I was expecting real symphony instrument sounds. Still, it is fun for little ones to push the buttons.
5.0 out of 5 stars Fun informative way to learn about music
Fun way for children to learn musical terms and facts. Multi-level learning possible with this book, so that it is fun for all ages to learn from,
5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended- fantastic book
I can’t say enough good things about this book. This is is a fantastic book and my 3 year old and 1 year old read it at least 3 times a day. It’s so enjoyable and educational. The music is wonderful, the descriptions of the symphony, instruments, and elements of music are beautiful. I like how the pages have different types of print so i can choose which parts to read to my young kids who won’t sit for too long (sometimes we just read what the mice are saying or just the descriptions of the instruments if we’re in a rush.) Besides the music, my son is learning how to recognize and match numbers from this book because each sound is numbered in the book and in the sound bar. He is learning fine motor by pressing the button the right way. My son has a significant speech delay and difficulties expressing himself, but he can say and act out all of these instruments and musical elements in this book. He asks to listen to “the symphony” every day now on the radio. This book is the family favorite and I can’t wait to try out the jazz version.
5.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Book
It was a perfect gift for my grandchildren.

Excelente regalo
Muy bonito y bastante bien hecho
Excelente!
Welcome to the symphony é um livrinho maravilhoso para apresentar o mundo da música, da orquestra e da sinfonia para as crianças. Usando a 5a Sinfonia de Beethoven e uma linguagem bem acessível, a autora explica o que é tema principal, melodia e harmonia em uma sinfonia. Fala do papel do spalla e do maestro, fala sobre tom, afinação, tempo e sobre as notas musicais. Por fim, fala sobre os instrumentos e seus respectivos grupos dentro da orquestra.Na lateral do livro podemos ouvir o som de alguns instrumentos e de partes da sinfonia, tornando mais fácil, por exemplo, a compreensão da diferença entre melodia, harmonia e tema principal.Excelente! (Não encontrei ainda em português um livro que fale dessa forma - com sons e uma linguagem simples - sobre sinfonias. De toda forma, vale a pena comprar e colar a tradução ao lado de cada texto.)
Excellent book!
My grandson loves this book! Really glad I got it for him!
