The tale is called Tom and Around the World on the Trumpet. We take a trip around the world and realize that Tom, and his grandfather Sam, are introduced to the trumpet as one of the most versatile instruments that exists, with a wide range of styles and sonorities that emerge according to where the story takes place.
To make it more interesting, the book is full of attractive illustrations by the painter Pau Morales, and also includes a CD with the narration of the story and the recording of all the music that accompanies it, with different types of trumpets (Bb, piccolo and the Baroque trumpet) and percussion. Collaborators on the recording are Javier Medrano as the narrator, Carles Herruz as the trumpeter and Xavi de la Salud as the percussionist.
Tom and around the world on the trumpet is also an idea that has been extrapolated for the stage, since it is centered around creating an entertaining show focused on children and family audiences, ideal for working with animation and reading, listening to music and being introduced to artistic sensitivity. Here is a video trailer of the show:
