This is my 3 toddlers' favorite show. Wish there were more shows on TV like this! Following is a great example, where the "magic trumpet" plays a major role. And it's almost an accurate rendering, except for missing the 2nd valve slide...maybe that's what makes it magic?

I have mixed affection for that show. Some of the episodes do a reasonable job of elevating both the compositions and the instruments. Other episodes sound like MIDI instruments and really sell the compositions short. _________________ "I'm an engineer, which means I think I know a whole bunch of stuff I really don't."
