Description

It's almost Friday night and the city is coming alive. As the darkness deepens, ninety-two men and thirteen women are getting ready for work - their day job, that is. They start by bathing and putting on their special attire, before gathering at midtown to play together as a team. In this unique behind-the-scenes look, Karla Kuskin and Marc Simont bring the world of an orchestra to life. With their combined talents, they offer a fascinating glimpse into how musicians prepare for a performance. This charming book is perfect for anyone interested in music or the arts. A notable children's book from 1983, it has been recognized for its engaging portrayal of the orchestra's preparations and its unique blend of storytelling and illustration.
