The Animal Orchestra are back in town, and they're going to play some of Handel's most famous music. For the first time ever, the Animal Choir are also joining their orchestra friends to sing along to two of the tunes! Children will love pressing the buttons to hear pieces including the Water Music, Zadok the Priest and the Hallelujah Chorus (from Handel's Messiah), and there's lots to look at and talk about in the endearing illustrations. With a little sprinkling of facts about Handel's life, this is a perfect introduction to one of the greatest composers of all time.
