Movie Reviews of Disney's Little Einsteins - Mission Celebration
Movie Review: Titles of the musical pieces please
Summary: 5 Stars
My 3 1/2-year-old son and I enjoy these Little Einstein DVDs a lot. Maybe for different reasons. I like to see how they work the art into the story, he likes to go pat,pat,pat,pat ... blast off! Also, I am learning more about music, and I think he is too, kind of indirectly. I downloaded the pieces from Instrument Fairies (Puppet March, etc.) and played them on the car stereo ... and he made the connection ... he shouted Little Einsteins! I like how they select very distinctive pieces.
In more recent Little Einsteins they have the titles of the pieces written next to the composers name. In this DVD, the characters say the names of the pieces ... and I can't understand what the character is saying for the Bizet piece - Suite L ... No. 2
Can anyone tell me the name of that piece?
The question of character stereotyping is interesting, and I am sometimes shocked by how much of that one sees in children's "educational" entertainment (especially the helpless girls) ... but I have to disagree about Quincy being the "funny musician." He plays the violin, and that really means a lot, being the most difficult musical instrument to play. If he's funny, I guess he's also really talented. I didn't realize June was Asian ... if I think about it, I guess I thought she might be Italian or Arab American.
Anyway, if anyone can help me out with the title of that Bizet piece, I'd much appreciate it!

All Rights Reserved. www.albert-einstein.orgFine artwork, classical music, and destinations around the world are the order of the day for the Little Einsteins, a group of musically-minded children who travel the world in their trusty rocket ship looking for adventure. Each of these three CGI animated adventures encourages viewers ages 2 to 7 to get involved by clapping along and promotes the development of careful listening skills and an understanding of basic musical terminology. In "The Birthday Machine," June, Leo, Quincy, Annie, and Rocket can't wait to construct a birthday machine, but their quest for parts takes them deep within Michelangelo Buonarroti's painting "The Laurentian Library" and then on a gondola ride through the canals of Venice where they chase and order specific melodic fragments from Johann Sebastian Bach's "Brandenberg Concerto Number 5." In "Go West Young Train," the group journeys to the American Wild West where they experience the art of Navajo basketry and the music of Georges Bizet while helping Little Red Train recover a bag of party supplies stolen by Big Jet. Finally, the group journeys around the globe from Seattle, Washington to the tropical rainforest of Henri Rousseau's "The Merry Jesters" and the ice floes of Antarctica in "The Birthday Balloons." Along the way, they pick out melodic fragments from Mozart's "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" and recapture a handful of runaway balloons. The DVD bonus feature "You've Got a Mission" gives viewers a chance to pilot Rocket on their own mission to gather party goods. --Tami Horiuchi
