About
The Orchestre de Paris plays a snowy adventure drawn from Jack London's books, where people and wolves fight to survive in the frozen north. Illustrator Jules Stromboni draws the story live as the music plays. Expect excerpts from Sibelius, Dvořák's New World Symphony and Copland's Rodeo, with spoken parts from the orchestra's children's choir. A good pick for kids who like animal stories and a big orchestral sound.
