Now it's your chance to swing along with the greatest composers of the classical era! This book and CD pack features 12 favourite classical works, with a difference: exciting, inventive arrangements by Mark Armstrong that make them appealing and fun for all ages. The collection includes themes from the greatest classical composers, such as Mozart’s Eine kleine Nachtmusik and Overture (from The Marriage of Figaro), and Beethoven’s Für Elise. The CD features live jazz trio backing tracks, complete with full instrumental performances of each track. Also included on the CD are printable PDFs of the piano accompaniments.

The books can be used alongside the “authentic” Classical Play-Along titles (available soon), which contains traditional arrangements of the same pieces. This is a fun way to encourage children to appreciate classical music or simply to breathe new life into your favourite tunes.
