Wake Up, Clarinet by Oran Etkin is a CD that gives kids a taste of music they might not already be accustomed to, Jazz! Oran Etkin is a jazz clarinetist who is now catering to children. I think this CD is great because it expands upon the music that you might think of as kids music and gives you something more for your kids to appreciate. This CD introduces little kids to sounds not only of the clarinet, but a variety of other instruments as well. Etkin does this in a fun way calling his clarinet by the name Clara Net and making it "talk". Teela loves it! I love the Little Lamb Jam. It is a bit repetitious so my boys were not as into it as she was. This CD is a great introduction into the Jazz music world.
