Children's Book Recommendation: Composer is Dead

                                             

Dear Friends,
I hope this finds you well-

Today, I would like to introduce you to one of my favorite books AND music (!), Lemony Snicket's The Composer is Dead. If you have read any of Lemony Snicket's books, you know you're in for a treat. His books are clever, cheeky, and definitely entertaining.

CSO has performed The Composer is Dead a few times at Young People's Concerts and Family Concerts. The story is hilarious with lots of "inside jokes" for orchestral musicians, and the music composed by Nathaniel Stookey is absolutely marvelous.

Here is a link to this book (with CD) on amazon (please make sure you're using the "smile.amazon.com" to support your favorite organization- CSO!) :

Here is also a link to a youtube vide of this work:

I hope you can join the Inspector in search for who killed the composer.

Happy reading/listening!

Best,

Kayoko
