Baby Bach

Today's moms and dads want the best for their children, but often fall short on providing quality time, sometimes plopping junior down in front of the TV for a breather (and then worrying about his budding brain turning to mush.) Baby Bach is a guilt eliminator. In this music video for babies and toddlers, synthesized Bach accompanies images of tops, toys, balls, bubbles, balloons, and more, occasionally interrupted by a puppet or a friendly child's comments. Baby Bach sports some clever image associations, as well as some missed editing opportunities, but the point is that the appreciation of the music is enhanced by the visual stimulation. You can almost see that gray matter grow. Recommended. Two other titles in the series are also available: Baby Mozart (see VL-11/98 for an alternative take on music videos for babies) and Baby Einstein. Aud: P. (E. Druda)
