The Four Seasons - Spring Allegro (Antonio Vivaldi)

We’re flying to the playground!
The missing piece must be found,
Must be found, oh yes,

The missing piece has been found!
We got it from the playground,
The playground,
And now we’re big again!

[edit] Musical Concept

  • Beat is taught by clapping to the "tick tock" of the gears in the cuckoo clock.
  • Forte is taught by singing loudly to make the team big again. When they sing quietly, the music notes are small and purple; when they sing loudly, the notes are large and orange.

[edit] Rocket's Gadgets

  • Look and Listen Scope
  • All-Terrain Bulldozer Tracks
  • Grab Nabber

[edit] Trivia

  • The Big and Small Machine's voice is The Four Seasons played by a string quartet
  • The Queen Ant's voice is a violin
  • The cuckoo bird's voice may be a clarinet
  • The gang shrinks so small they are "smaller than flowers" and "the size of a bee"
  • June thinks that going through the clock again "is cuckoo"
  • At the Final Curtain, Annie sings, "And now we're big again!"
