My grandkids love this music

"These stories of Tubby the Tuba and Celeste enchanted me and my kids when we were children. I bought this CD for my grandchildren, who also love it. This recording, however, was somewhat flawed. The "Once" in "Once upon a time" doesn't come through on the first story. My alert 5-yr-old granddaughter caught that and said, "It's not at the beginning!" She got used to it after a while, however, and now doesn't complain. Also, in the story of Celeste, the volume suddenly rises half way through the story. Again, my granddaughter doesn't mind, but I have to run over and turn it down! Anyway, these aren't major flaws, and the recording is still worth while, but I thought potential buyers should know."

Fun piece

"Good recording. Love Meredith Vieira, although she was a bit low-key in this studio version (a live recording before an audience may have yielded more excitement). It was a good reference for school performance of the piece, both for the musicians and narrator."
