Take a musical journey through time and space with The Story Orchestra: The Planets: Musical Puzzle, an interactive adventure that turns Holst’s famous score into a creative hands-on experience for your little reader.
Piece together the interstellar adventure of Gustav Holst's Planets with this unique musical jigsaw puzzle.
Begin with a musical tray that tells the story of two children on a magical journey through space – from the pounding drums of Mars to the sparkling glockenspiel of Jupiter, and from the dizzy, lurching chords of Saturn to the hopping bassoons, clarinets, and oboes of Uranus.
Using the full puzzle image on the poster as a reference, piece together an enchanting illustration showing a brother and sister speeding through The Planets on an out-of-this-world adventure. As you slot the shaped pieces into place, press the musical notes to hear the vivid sound of an orchestra playing from Holst's original score.
Turn the poster over to discover the final leg of their journey, as well as a brief biography of the composer, and how the music connects with the story.
This musical jigsaw puzzle is the perfect gift to introduce children to classical music.
