LITTLE MAESTROS

Word Is On The Playground

$13.98 CD

 Kid Rhino's presentation of the joyful, effervescent and wonderfully creative music from Kidville's renowned Little Maestros pre-school music program begins with the debut album WELCOME HOME TO MAESTROVILLE and this equally enchanting follow up, WORD IS ON THE PLAYGROUND. The delightful disc further navigates the happily harmonic world of Maestroville for little music-makers everywhere - as well as the grown up maestros who sing and swing along with them! 

 Based on the award-winning Little Maestros music program - which is already #1 of its kind in NYC and has won praise from The New York Times and NBC's The Today Show - WORD IS ON THE PLAYGROUND takes place at Maestroville's fun-filled Harmony Playground. The character “Scratch” is DJ'ing and draws a huge crowd of tiny tunemakers who then celebrate life, community and music in an irrepressible, more-the-merrier way. 

 As usual, a day in the life of Maestroville is all about singing, interactive movement, dancing, making friends and learning. With this exuberant album, legions of Little Maestros across America will be growing up into seasoned music enthusiasts with dozens of selections including “Starting From Scratch,” “It's Gonna Be A Great Day” and “Let's All Be Silly.” 

 Little Maestros from Kidville is the brainchild of former Atlantic Records executive Marni Konner, who conceived it after the birth of her daughter. Designed to innovatively entertain, educate and enrich, its success lies in its appeal to both children and adults - as proved by classes in the NY-Metropolitan tri-state area, which have been exploding in popularity for several years now. Using completely original music and encompassing a diverse array of live forms and genres, the Little Maestros method also incorporates musical storytime, language development, imaginative play, global awareness segments, proprietary puppets and pretend-play activities.  

 Poised for breakout national success, Little Maestros is big fun and more! In addition to WORD IS ON THE PLAYGROUND, a second album, WELCOME HOME TO MAESTROVILLE, is also available from Kid Rhino! Kid Rhino's releases upgrade the original Kidville editions of these titles - which were only available locally at Northeast U.S Little Maestros class locations - with previously unreleased tracks and a bonus poster!
