Album Notes

"Pet Pals" started as a way to introduce children to classical music for piano. A few days before I was to play the recital, my 17-year old cat, Mazeppa became ill and passed into her tenth life. So I decided to extend the program to 17 pieces and share it with animal and music lovers everywhere.

Thanks for listening!

Hurrah to Shirley for her choses!  Great idea!  I have listened to it so many times in 2 weeks.  Shirley adds light hearted fun to her music.

I love the choices of music.  I saw the review from Elizabeth and made sure to order 3 so I could keep one for myself!  It's playing right now.  Kids will love it but so will grown-ups.

Utterly charming and fun for all ages

I bought two CDs thinking of making gift to children but I ended up sending them to my 86 year old mother and a close friend from high school.  "You are there" at the farm or the zoo - it doesn't get better than this.  Inspired choices of composers, exceptional execution.  Bet you can't buy just one!
