MOZART AND ME -- especially suited for children, K through 6 grades. Frustrated with his lack of progress and tired of being compared to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Daniel (played by Ben Nordstrom) is contemplating quitting the cello. Then, amazingly, young Mozart comes to visit. He describes the hectic life of a child prodigy. Quartet Seraphin demonstrates the intimate and intricate qualities of the great composer's string quartets, and Daniel rediscovers the joy of music.
