Beethoven's Wig

Beethoven's Wig Sing Along Piano Classics

Inspired and wildly imaginative, "Beethoven's Wig Sing Along Piano Classics" are zany, stick-in-your-head lyrics set to masterpieces by great composers. The lyrics are filled with fact and fancy about the composers and their music opening a door to serious music that's fun. It's fun to play and sing along! The music for each piano piece is presented as it was originally written by the composer. As a bonus, there is an appendix with pieces transposed into the keys used on Beethoven's Wig recordings. This allows pianists to play and sing along with the recorded tracks. BEETHOVEN'S WIG is the creation of Richard Perlmutter, who is the lyricist, lead singer and producer of the group's five albums. Beethoven's Wig has toured North America and performed at arts centers and with symphony orchestras. The group's recordings have won 50 awards including including four GRAMMY Nominations. They have also won Parent's Choice Awards, Teacher's Choice Awards and been designated as "Notable Recordings" by the American Library Association.
