The fun continues! Volume 2 picks up where Volume 1 left off...More fun, humorous songs about artists and art for kids (and adults!). Multiple musical styles and singable lyrics take you on a wild musical adventure. The brainchild of art teacher/musician Greg Percy, the music was created as a unique way to engage his elementary art students. Is Dali really serious? Is Mona Lisa the "Girl of My Dreams"? You'll go "Down to the Art Room" and learn about Calder's "World on a String". The melodic "Mondrian" will take you up and down,left and right. "Tints and Shades" will increase your palette,it's true.All of the music is catchy, enjoyable, and easy to remember.Your kids will love it and so will you. If you liked Volume 1, then Volume 2 is "must have"! (Volume 3 is now available too! )
