The Philharmonic Gets Dressed


Back when I was in college, one of my students gave me this book for Christmas.  I'm glad I hung onto it because 13 years later, my daughter loves it!  This book is exactly what the title says - the ninety-two men and thirteen women of the  New York Philharmonic getting dressed for a performance.  It shows the different ways they bathe, don their concert black, travel (the brass guys use the subway, the conductor has a limo:) and come together at Philharmonic Hall to become one musical unit.  

It takes me back to my own orchestra days, and WonderGirl loves to pour over the details on the pages and point out all the differences in the way each musician does the same thing.  Check your local library for The Philharmonic Gets Dressed by Karla Kuzkin, illustrated by Marc Simont and tell me what you think!
