Product Description
What happens when a turkey from the sticks meets a Park Avenue Pigeon? With the feel of an old-time radio story, Tough Turkey in the Big City follows the comic blunders of Tom Turkey, who leaves the farm to try his luck in the big city. There's a close call with a menacing chef, a tussle at the Turkey Club, a brief romance with a pigeon, and a happy mix-up at the Thanksgiving Day Parade. It's a big-hearted story of a plucky bird with a bold idea that leads him to a place he never expected.
Tom is portrayed by the bass trombone. The other instruments each play several parts in this fun cast of characters. The music of the farm is a swinging barnyard counterpoint, while the music of the city recalls the smoky jazz of film noire. There's some fun march music at the parade, and hot Latin rhythms at the Turkey Club.
Tough Turkey in the Big City is narrated by composer and pianist Bruce Adolphe.
