Our Mission: To cultivate a love of music through education and joyful performances.

Stories in Music™ is the award-winning audio CD series for family listening.  These recordings for narrator and symphony orchestra introduce great music and classics stories and provide the opportunity to develop important listening skills.

Three Major Benefits:

Expand listening horizons.

Our goals are to expand musical horizons, develop listening skills, and encourage parents and children to listen to music together.  Listening to the complex patterns of classical music has been shown to stimulate brain development.  This series makes it fun!

Develop listening skills and accumulate musical memories.

These CDs highlight Stephen Simon’s unique ability to explain how to listen to music.   His joyful music-making, his interest in a broad range of musical styles, and his compositional skills provide entertaining and educational middle tracks.  Bonnie Ward Simon weaves background information on the composer, the work and its place in history, both on the CDs and in the program book.

Encourage adults and children to listen to music together.

Listening is becoming a lost art. We encourage you to take the time to develop this crucial skill and delight in a world of wonderful music.
