my all-time favourite story
I've been listening to this story for the past 30 years, it still holds up and creates the same magic it always did for me. wish you could listen to it without chapter numbers being read aloud, as a continuous story like it was on the tape I had as a kid (minus the flip, of course). never fails to help me fall asleep.

We love the Classical Kids Stories BUT
I am extremely disappointed that Amazon felt the need to pull these stories from Amazon music and add them to Audible. The only difference other than the charge for the "book" is terrible chapter number interruptions in random places in the story. The stories are great, but the need to now charge for them just for the added horrible interruption is despicable.

We would love if audible offered the rest of this series…these are as timeless as the music of the composers they’re about ✨🎶🎭🎻🎺🎼🎵🎹

Good vintage kid content
The chapter names are unnecessary and obtrusive but this is still a great listen for families.

Why the chapter narration?
The “chapter 1”, “chapter 2” thing is unbelievably annoying. Almost ruins the wonderful story. Please, Amazon, fix it.

Ugh
I bought this out of nostalgia listening to it as a child. There is an interruption every 2 or 3 minutes announcing the chapters…gnus let sentence in the story. Very disappointing and ruins the listen.

Bad Chapter Breaks
This version had just awful chapter breaks. They will literally cut off in the middle of a sentence and an obtrusive voice will announce the new chapter. If I remember correctly, the version I listened to as a kid (on cassette) didn’t have any chapters at all. Seriously it’s distracting and almost ruins the story.

One of my Childhood favorites!
One of my favorites from when I was a kid. The only issue that I have is the guy that does the chapter interruptions. He's monotone and it really clashes with the story because sometimes he interrupts in the middle of a word or sentence. The original version didn't have that, it just told the story.
