  • "Igor has a loud and distinctive voice, and when the Dawn Chorus begins, the other birds laugh at the notes coming out of his beak. After unsuccessful voice lessons, Igor decides never to sing again and sets off to find a place in the desert. Heartbroken, Igor roosts on a rock until a splendid sunset moves him so much that he breaks his vow of symphonic silence. Suggested level: junior, primary."

  • "A l'arrivée du printemps, Igor, mi-merle mi-corbeau, se réjouit d'entonner pour la première fois le grand concert de l'aube. Hélas, il chante complètement faux et gâche tout le morceau. Il s'entraîne seul pendant une semaine, fait appel au meilleur professeur de chant, mais chante toujours aussi faux. Effondré, il décide alors de ne plus jamais chanter de sa vie."
  • "It's all about the joy of making music, and finding an appreciative audience. Igor has a loud and distinctive voice, and he cannot sing in tune. He is drummed out of the Dawn Chorus for not being musical enough, so he takes singing lessons. But his teacher says that not only is he always out of tune, he has no rhythm either. Poor Igor. He goes off into the desert, where at least he can sing to himself without being asked to stop. He builds a nest on a big rock, and starts to sing. But the rock is in fact a gigantic bird - a Dodo - who likes his music so much it wakes up in order to join in. 4 yrs+"@en
