SKU: A0.751125
Composed by Benedikt Brydern. Children,Contemporary. 122 pages. ConSordino Music Publishing #4297265. Published by ConSordino Music Publishing (A0.751125).In 2015 Mount Vernon Music commissioned a piece for children from composer Benedikt Brydern for use in outreach performances in East Texas schools. Based on the Grimm’s fairy tale The Bremen Town Musicians, the work was made even more accessible to children by the addition of illustrations by artist Madeline Crist. Brydern’s The Town Musicians, A Musical Adventure for narrator, flute, violin, viola and cello was premiered in June 2015. Since then MVM has taken it into many schools, performing it for thousands of young listeners. The impression this piece makes on children who otherwise have no opportunity to see orchestra productions (e.g. Peter & the Wolf) is profound. In order to share this delightful music with as many children as possible, MVM created a bilingual book and CD in English and Spanish, and a version in German and English. These recordings pair Mount Vernon Music’s own Orchard Ensemble with narration by professional Hollywood actors Will Ryan, Elke Sommer and Jordi Caballero. This sheet music edition contains a score, individual parts ( Flute,Violin,Viola and Violoncello) and Narration Parts ( in 3 languages: English,Spanish and German). Performance time is 20 minutes.
