It’s not often that a musician with a gold and double-platinum record awards composes music for the planet’s newest listeners, but that is the case with Raimond Lap. Raimond is a Dutch composer with years of experience composing for films and jingles, including the background music for a Pampers commercial.
A number of different instruments are used on the different CD’s to introduce little ones to a variety of musical sounds. Among the instruments are guitar, piano, flute, a xylophone and others as well as what sounds like squeaks from baby toys. In addition, the CD’s include gurgling, cooing and happy baby sounds that many babies and parents may find soothing as well as some baby words: “mama, dada.”
The music is well done with simple rhythm in a basic style that will appeal to young children and new parents. While the majority of the CD’s were done in a classical style, Raimond included variety with some music in reggae, rock and blues. Other sounds that complement the music are sounds of birds and ocean waves in appropriate pieces.
Adults who love classical music will be especially curious to hear the simplified, yet delightful, Classical Baby CD. Raimond stripped the complexity from these mature pieces to present delightful and enticing previews of well-known compositions by the masters. Featured are Fur Elise, Ode to Joy and Moonlight Sonata (Beethoven); Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desire (Bach); Lullaby (Brahms); Theme (Mozart) and others in deliciously fun arrangements that are sure to please the whole family while introducing the newest member to the classics.
These CD’s and other products are available from Lovely Baby Music.
