The beautiful colors of the changing leaves and the fun of Halloween are some of the reasons that Fiddlesticks thinks fall is a great time of year. In celebration of this special season, Fiddlesticks invites you to come along with him on a musical fall adventure. Delight in the adventurous sounds of composer Modest Mussorgsky’s Night on Bald Mountain featured in Disney’s Fantasia, thrill to the magical music of “Harry’s Wondrous World” from Harry Potter & the Sorcerer’s Stone by the legendary John Williams, and enjoy other music inspired by the wonderful season of fall.

Every winter, Fiddlesticks dreams about the first snowflakes of the season and the wintry wonderland that is sure to follow. He can’t wait to go outside and take part in all of the fun activities that winter brings, like ice skating, sledding and building snowmen. Join Fiddlesticks as he shares some of his favorite music inspired by the winter season, including the Skaters’ Waltz and selections from Pyotr Ilyich Tchaivoksky’s Symphony No. 1, nicknamed “Winter Dreams.”

Whether it is a trip to the beach or a journey West, summer is a time for escaping normal routines for family fun in new places. Fiddlesticks helps prepare us for the summer travel season with music that transports one to far away destinations. Enjoy John Williams’ rousing Cowboy Overture, selections from Ferde Grofé’s majestic Grand Canyon Suite and exciting melodies from the Pirates of the Caribbean.
