"Beathoven & The Big Note Band "

"The Big Note Band" has fallen apart! They've lost their beat, can't remember the melody
and don't know the harmony! So their conductor, Beathoven uses comedy, magic and
music to help them re-discover the essential elements of music. The band comes alive on
a giant video screen with animated characters that interact with the audience. In the end,
the band just can't get it together. They are fired and the audience becomes Beathoven's new band in a giant jam session. Beathoven sings and plays a vast array of musical instruments including banjo, guitar, Irish and African drums.
