“The Conductor’s Spellbook” composed by Paul Dooley is the story of an imaginary adventure about a young boy, Tony Stradivarius. Tony and his class attend a concert performed by an orchestra. After the concert, the class returns to school, but Tony sneaks away and hides backstage until all the students and musicians have left.
Tony thinks he is alone, but soon discovers the instruments left on stage. Tony wonders if he can make the instruments come to life, and finds a large book on the conductor’s podium. As Tony flips through the pages and experiments with the imaginary musical spells, he discovers that he can make the instruments come to life!
