Book Reviews of Meet the Orchestra
Book Review: Start Their Emotional Intelligence Young for the Sheer Joy of It
Summary: 5 Stars
As someone who teaches and coaches emotional intelligence, I'm always saddened to find people whose emotional lives are stunted for lack of introduction to the arts. I include great art, symphonies and opera, in my EQ Foundation Course for adults, and in my coach certification training program. Why? Because we know we need it! Classical music is an acquired taste, because in the US we don't grow up with it. I bought this book hoping to include it with my EQ products, and to offer it as a selection for my Club Vivo Per Lei/I Live for Music, and I love it. Buy the book for your little one and then go with them to Barber of Seville; it's humor appeals to all ages, over time. (Spend the money to sit right up front; the immediacy is important!) And put the arts in your budget right after food, clothing and shelter. The arts develops the emotional life in an intelligent way. It can't over-ride IQ, but without it, IQ is rendered ineffective. Ask Turandot, wink wink. He had to teach her that his name was love, and he didn't do it with his intellect, he did it with a kiss.
Summary of Meet the Orchestra
This lyrical romp through the orchestra begins with animal musicians slowly gathering for the evening performance. Poetic descriptions suggest the sounds of the instruments, and lively watercolor illustrations capture the playful essence of each musician and musical instrument. “It?s a smashing introduction to classical music, and a must prior to a first visit to the symphony.?--Publishers Weekly
