Beethoven's Wig
Editorial Reviews
Boogie with Beethoven's Wig! Move to the music while delighting in zany lyrics set to classic music pieces written especially for dance. Step into a fun foundation for classical music and timeless dances that will last a lifetime.
Inspired and wildly imaginative, the Beethoven's Wig series has won 40 national awards including three Grammy Award nominations. It has been featured on NPR's Morning Edition and All Things Considered and on NBC's Today Show.
The CD booklet includes lyrics, trivia questions and activities. The instrumental performance of each piece is also included without lyrics.
Beethoven's Wig is the classical music sensation for the whole family!

Delightful classical parodies (2008-12-07)
Customer Review : 4
The "Beethoven's Wig" series of CDs present very cleverly written parodies of familiar classical works. Following the parodies (for which the words are printed), the same works are presented in instrumental form. Several people have discovered that putting words to classical works ("Songs without words, with words") is an excellent way to interest children (and some adults) in classical music and to help them remember the melodies and their composers. Few of the previous efforts have been as clever as Perlmutter's "Beethoven's Wig" series. It's a real delight.
Another great, funny CD. (2008-10-18)
Customer Review : 5
Another great, funny CD. I have all 4 of this series and this is another great one. A must for all families looking to teach their children about classical music in a fun way. Also, a great rendition of Pomp and Circumstances that our recent college graduate son thoroughly related to and enjoyed!
Love it (2008-10-16)

This is a great avenue for introducing classical music to ALL ages. A fun "listen to" adventure.
Excellent Addition (2008-10-13)
Customer Review : 5
This 4th CD is a perfect addition to the set, especially tracks 4 (Give me a midnight snack, to the tune of Bizet's "Habanero") and 12 (Beep beep beep--which gives a whole new perspective of "Moonlight Sonata"). For classical music lovers, it's really great and for those new to classical musical or who've never before thought of it as "music", the lyrics are hilarious and catchy, and help the listener think perhaps those "ancient composers" actually knew what they were doing.
More fun and silliness for Beethoven's Wig fans (2008-09-03)
Customer Review : 4
There are some really fun tracks on this CD, plus there are American composers (Sousa and Joplin) for the first time.
