Beethoven Lives Upstairs - Audiobook on CD 5 5 1 1

Great CD! What a nice CD! I homeschool my 11-year old son and struggle to find ways to make classical music enjoyable and approachable for him. Music history and simply listening bores him. This product is such a great twist on both of those! The story is from a young boy's perspective, which he relates in letters to his uncle, on having an eccentric, loud Beethovan living upstairs. Beethovan's music is played throughout the 1 hour-long story, and is used to create great background and feeling to what is going on. The boy who did the narration was very good, also - very natural sounding and unstilted. I only found one part which might be mildly objectionable to some parents, and that is when the neighborhood children in the street below Beethovan's window are laughing, as the composer is looking at a sheet of music without any clothes on. But it is a very short, mild, and non-descript part. I am so glad we ran across this, and we'll be looking for more of this kind of CD in the future! March 23, 2011
