It Could Be A Wonderful World

$9.95

Following the immense success of Harbinger’s release of Ballads for the Age of Science, this new CD features the same joyous spirit of imagination and knowledge as our previous release. As the noted educator and author Louis Untermeyer wrote of this album on it’s original release, “Little Songs On Big Subjects, are inspired bits of imagination in which the tunes are easily remembered and the meaning becomes increasingly memorable. They offer a perfect combination of entertainment and education, and, I believe, are destined to become American classics. They are the Mother Goose songs of Democracy.”
