Why Handel Waggled his Wig,
By
This review is from: Why Handel Waggled His Wig (Paperback)
This book was fantastic. I read it straight through & it took me about a week, & once I was done, I missed it -A sign of a good book. From this book, you will learn about the lives of 6 wonderful composers, exicting new vocabulary and what to do with your granny when you're bored. Steven brings the charcters to life in a way that anybody can enjoy it. However, that said, I would recomend this to anybody above the age of 10. I liked the choice of composers as well. One thing that is a bit surprising is that I still don't know why Handel waggled ihs wig.

I bought this for my 10 year old son (to further entice him into the world of classical music), but ended up hogging the book myself! It is very good - pitched quite nicely at children with a conversation, jokey tone. And my boy won't get his hands on it until I've read it again, although I am going to buy 'Why Beethoven threw the Stew'; he can make a start on that one!Highly recommended!

This book is all about having a fun, easy read while learning about the lives of these great composers. Not in depth but quite good for all ages.

Great introduction to composers and their music,
By pilinut - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Why Handel Waggled His Wig (Paperback)
Came upon this book by accident, thinking it would be a good educational read for children. It turned out to be a witty, well-written introduction to some famous composers and their notable works (and some under-appreciated ones), full of little personal anecdotes alongside basic historical information. A good, fun place to start at any age.
