Snuggling and dreaming to Bach, Beethoven and Brahms, for the very youngest

The stage like a big bed, with a piano in the middle. Barefoot musicians in pyjamas. In the air: clouds, sheep, hot air balloons and twinkling stars. Count them while you listen to Bach, Beethoven and Brahms. And then, after that sweet, dreamy music, the children can snuggle up with the musicians, peep into the score, press their little ears to the cello, touch the piano… now that’s getting really close to Bach. In Hemelsblauw Pantalone link classical music to the sleep ritual of babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers. But classical music doesn’t bore you to sleep. Quite the contrary. Classical music is exciting, emotional and inspiring: the stuff of delicious dreams.
