Presenting an engaging and fun-filled children's show for Narrator and Orchestra written and composed by Yvonne Gillespie with poetry by Peter Gillespie!
The concert begins with a lively Prelude full of foot-stomping rhythms to help jump-start the children's musical imaginations as they begin their day at the farm. This is a clever set of variations on, you guessed it, Old McDonald Had a Farm! The story of HENRIETTA, the Cow follows and the children will love her laughable antics as she paints the rumps of the farm animals blue. Cluck, cluck, what do you hear? Listeners have an opportunity to guess that the animals being described in a short piece of music are chickens. Look up, way up, and watch the HULLABALOO in the Clouds; wonderful descriptive poetry and music will let the listeners' minds soar as they imagine many different farm animals up in the clouds. But watch out, for these farm animals are creating quite a ruckus. Next, the children will enjoy hearing a flock of sheep grazing in the pasture. Did they hear the wind? Then along comes the amusing story of CLYDE, The Horse who can't seem to keep out of trouble when he visits an old town out West. It has really been an exciting day at the farm but before everyone heads home they get to clap and stomp to the arousing finale which finishes the show with a holler!
