Notes

All parents want their children to learn to enjoy good music. Few realise, however, that musical appreciation should begin at an early age.
The problem has always been to open the child's mind to good music! Instrumental music in itself is an abstraction, and young children, with their extremely limited range of experience, are not able to form the mental images necessary to full appreciation. As a result, they lose interest.
CLASSICS FOR CHILDREN offers the best loved classical music, recorded by the finest musicians - and woven into the music is a simple story to intrigue the child, assuring attention and enjoyment. There is just enough story to hold interest. This music is not "adapted" for children or performed by small groups, but comes to the child in its original full beauty of sound, exactly as presented in the finest adult recordings.
If you're just a little tired of television gunfighting and of wondering how to reach the minds of your young folk with something worthwhile, then this record is for you.
