Ludwig

I recalled seeing this on tv when I was in hospital (on permanent bed rest!!) before my Son was born. It somehow made tv more interesting and definitely more musical. I've often wondered if a dvd of Ludwig is out there, because it would be just as entertaining for today's kids as it was with kids (and adults) of the 1970's. Who'd have thought a musicality inclined egg-shaped crystal existing among woodland wildlife could have hit the classical music spot with so many of all ages, cultures and tastes? By arranging Beethoven's music in a manner, making it a very enjoyable accompaniment to the cartoon and the characters, these arrangements open the classical music door to young children beautifully. The BBC hasn't shown anything as good since, which is a shame! Time for a CBBC repeat? PS: It also complies with all BBC politically correct rules and standards. Just saying.
