About Stories In Music: Casey At The Bat

Product Description In this CD and activity book package, Grammy nominated conductor Stephen Simon sets Casey at the Bat, the classic baseball poem written by Ernest Lawrence Thayer, to a jazzy, upbeat musical score. Featuring the London Philharmonic Orchestra and narrator Yadu, the music is highlighted with cheering crowds, vendors hawking their wares, the cheers of spectators and the sounds of the ball being hit which bring the story to life. A guest appearance by the Michigan State University Band and educational tracks make this recording a must have for baseball fans of all ages. Review "At last, two of my loves - baseball and classical music - united at last. This is a wonderful piece that the entire family will enjoy. Besides, they've got Casey wearing pinstripes." --George M. Steinbrenner III, New York Yankees "...Simon does a wonderful job of transporting his audience to the ballpark where Casey is playing on a summer day. This interactive, instructional CD does a wonderful job of helping children be active listeners and exposing them to the magic of composing..." --Chicago Parent " ...This Stories in Music CD offers a fresh and dramatic reading of the classic baseball tale... But most noteworthy is the musical lesson it provides..." --Washington Post
