Aesop’s Fables
Bring the orchestra to your students...
Aesop’s Fables for narrator and chamber orchestra are light musical vignettes. Their descriptive and colorful character makes them attractive to the young musical ear. Aesop’s Fables was composed to introduce the instruments of the orchestra to elementary students and to teach them about the elements of music.
Select any two or three fables or present all five with the Prelude and Finale. Each movement is about three minutes in duration. The themes of Aesop’s Fables lend themselves well to student drawings or paintings, which can be viewed during the performance.
Aesop’s Fables is a great educational outreach tool. The Aesop’s Fables Video Series, featuring composer Richard Maltz, prepares students for a rewarding concert experience. Videos and related educational materials are included.
- 1 performance with SC Phil and narrator $3200
- Additional performances $1600
