Description:
Greek storyteller Aesop is known for teaching moral lessons through fables that feature animals with human traits. In this delightful concert work, we learn that "an act of kindness is never wasted," "it is very foolish to be greedy," and "necessity is the mother of invention." Each whimsical movement offers a distinct character and tempo, creating a fantastic opportunity to teach stylistic contrast and dramatic expression. Perform individually or as a five-minute set with singers of any age.
