One rainy afternoon, a boy named Allegro sat at his family’s old piano. He was trying to play a new song, but it wasn’t going well. Frustrated, Allegro crumpled up the music sheet and tossed it on the floor. It looked like a tiny dot on the dark wood.
But dots can be magical! When they grow lines and more lines, they can take you to amazing places. Suddenly, Allegro was whisked away by the beautiful sounds of music.
Allegro found himself dancing with sailors on windy ships and walking through meadows filled with the fresh scent of morning. He explored the shores of mysterious lands. Some songs made him feel sad, while others filled him with joy and made him want to dance.
As the music slowly faded, like the setting moon, Allegro found himself back at home. It was still time to practice, so he continued playing the piano, feeling inspired by his magical journey.

A magical journey through 11 musical masterpieces.
One rainy afternoon, Allegro sat at the old family piano. He was trying to practice his latest piece, but it just wasn’t going well. “I hate this music,” Allegro said, crumpling the sheet into a tiny ball and throwing it on the floor. There it lay like a pale dot against the dark wood.
But dots are funny things because if they grow lines and more lines, they become something that just might transport you to magical places. Away Allegro went, carried off on the sounds of enchanting melodies.
He danced with the sailors of wind-tossed ships and walked in the fragrant meadows of morning’s first light. He explored the shores of uncharted lands. Some melodies were sad, causing his heartache, while others were triumphant, making his heart swell. At times, he wanted to dance a jig.
And then slowly, like the dimming light of the setting moon, the music faded, and Allegro was back home. It was still time to practice, so he did, and he did.
