Like most dogs, Jake loves
playing fetch. Unlike most dogs, Jake loves music even more. He loves to wag his tail to the beat of an
ordinary day and “sing” with the birds. When his friend Richie, the
principal stagehand at the Philharmonic, brings Jake to work one day, Jake is
treated to a lesson in real music. He “woofs!” to the
tweeting woodwinds and “ruffs!” to the deep horns, but when he hears the entire
symphony orchestra practice, he knows to be quiet and
listen. And when a crisis develops at that night's performance, Jake steps onstage and steals the show. Inspired by the real-life mascot of the New York Philharmonic,
Jake the Philharmonic Dog is a pitch-perfect introduction to the different sounds and instruments of the orchestra.
