I Love to Conduct/Transcript

Get ready! 
Let's go. 

I love to conduct. 

Art by... 
Edward Hicks. 
And... 
music by Edvard Grieg. 
_Leo 
Good morning. I'm Leo. 
We got up really early today. 
_Annie 
Before the sun. 
_Quincy 
Did you ever see the sun come up? 
The sunrise is so beautiful. 
_June 
We're going to play music to wake up the sun. 
_Annie 
I'm going to sing. 
La-la-la, la-la-la 
La-la-la-la-la 
_June 
I'm going to dance. 
_Leo 
And I'm going to do my favourite thing in the whole world. 
I'm going to conduct. 
_Annie 
Leo, do you have your baton? 
_Leo 
I'd never go anywhere without it. 
Is the sun coming up? 
Yay, here it comes! 
_Quincy 
The sun's up! 
_Annie 
That was great. 
_June 
Way to go, Leo! 
You're a really good conductor. 
_Leo 
What can I tell you? 
I've got a great baton. 
_Quincy 
Wow, listen to that, Leo. 
Sounds like you woke up a whole lot of animals. 
_Annie 
The squirrel is waking up. 
_June 
The little bird is saying good morning. 
_Quincy 
Whoa, we woke up a deer. 
_June 
Listen, what a pretty bird song. 
Do you see a bird? 
Where? 
Oh, yeah. 
It's a bald eagle. 
_Quincy 
Bald? 
_June 
Well, it's not really bald. 
It just looks bald, because it has white feathers on its head. 
_Leo 
It's picking up sticks. 
_June 
She must be building a nest. 
Bald eagles build enormous nests. 
They need lots and lots of sticks. 
Here, Leo, take a look. 
_Quincy 
Uh oh. Leo, look out, that bald eagle is... 
_Leo 
No, wait! That's not a stick. 
That's my baton! 
_Quincy 
I cannot believe it. 
The bald eagle took Leo's baton! 
_June 
Oh, no. Guys, what are we going to do? 
Leo loves his baton. 
_Leo 
I need my baton to conduct. 
That's my favourite thing in the world. 
_Quincy 
Don't worry, Leo, we'll help you get your baton back. 
_Leo 
We've got a mission! 
_Annie 
We've got to get Leo's baton. 
_All 
To Rocket! 
We've got a mission 
We've got a mission 
Ready? 
Do, re 
Me, fa 
So, la 
Ti, do 
Little Einsteins! 
We're on our way 
The mission of the day 
Starts when we say "Rocket". 
Rocket! 
Leo will guide us 
Quincy right beside us 
Blast off into the sky 
We're going on a mission 
Start the countdown 
Five, four, three, two, one! 
Everyone to Rocket 
Rev it up now 
_Leo 
Rocket! A bald eagle took my baton. 
Come on! 
Welcome aboard! 
Buckle your seat belts! 
_All 
Seat belts buckled! 
_Leo 
Prepare for blastoff! 
We're going to need a lot of power to blast off. 
Pat, pat, pat, pat. 
June is patting. 
Quincy's patting. 
Annie's patting. 
But we need more power! 
Put your hands on your lap and pat with us. 
Pat, pat, pat, pat. 
Faster! 
Now raise your arms as high as you can and say "blast off!" 
_All 
Blast off! 
Hang tight, cause here we go! 
Yeah! 
This is fun! 
_Annie 
We've got to find Leo's baton. 
_Quincy 
Bald eagle, where'd you go? 
_Annie 
We lost our baton 
Yes, we lost our baton 
Have you seen the bald eagle 
Who took our baton? 
_June 
I see lots of birds. 
Ducks. Geese. Swans. 
But where's that bald eagle? 
_Quincy 
Does that sound like the bald eagle? 
Yeah, I hear her. 
_June 
Where's the bald eagle? 
There she is! 
_Leo 
Rocket, follow that bald eagle. 
_Annie 
She's flying over that huge mountain. 
_June 
That's not just a mountain. 
We're in Washington. 
That must be Mount St Helens. 
_Annie 
It's a volcano. 
_Leo 
Come on, Rocket, we better get over the volcano fast, 
before it starts to... rumble! 
_Quincy 
Uh-oh! Listen to that music. 
_Leo 
It's coming from the volcano. 
_June 
I think the volcano is shaking. 
_Annie 
That's not good. 
_Quincy 
What's that mean? 
_Leo 
It says "Crescendo." 
It means the music's getting louder and louder... 
_All 
and louder! 
_June 
Oh, no! The volcano. 
_All 
It's going to blow! 
_Leo 
Rocket can't see where he's going. 
It's too cloudy! 
_Annie 
What happened? 
_Quincy 
We're stuck on the volcano hole. 
_Annie 
Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad. 
_Quincy 
Oh, Leo. I don't like the sound of that. 
_June 
We need to make a plan. 
We need to get the volcano to be quiet. 
_Leo 
Good thinking. But how? 
_Quincy 
I've got it! My flute! 
I could play softer and softer to quiet down the volcano. 
_Leo 
That's a great idea, Quincy. 
Are you sure you can do this? 
_Quincy 
Of course I can. 
Playing instruments is my favourite thing to do in the whole world. 
_Leo 
Come on, let's help Quincy play softer and softer. 
We need to tell him diminuendo. 
Can you say diminuendo? 
Good. Say diminuendo. 
_All 
Diminuendo. 
_Leo 
Softer. Diminuendo. 
Even softer. Diminuendo. 
Listen. 
Does the volcano sound softer or louder? 
Quincy's playing got the volcano to be quiet. 
_All 
Phew! 
_Leo 
Come on, Rocket, let's get out of here. 
Awesome, Quincy. 
_Annie 
You did it! 
_Quincy 
Oh, it was nothing. 
Thanks for helping me play diminuendo. 
Hey, guys, I think we got off that volcano just in time. 
_Leo 
Fast, Rocket, it's going to blow! 
_All 
Wow! 
_Annie 
Look at that! 
_June 
It's kind of beautiful. 
_Quincy 
It's so loud. 
_Leo 
What a crescendo! 
_Annie 
What's that red stuff? 
_June 
Hot melted rock. 
It's called lava. 
_Quincy 
We made it past the volcano, but where's the bald eagle? 
_Leo 
Rocket, put out your Look and Listen Scope. 
_Annie 
Where did she go? 
_Quincy 
I hear her! 
_Leo 
Where's the bald eagle? 
Yeah, there she is! 
Quick, Rocket, zoom in! 
_Quincy 
She's way ahead of us. 
_Leo 
Rocket can catch up. 
Use your Backup Booster. 
_Annie 
There she is! 
_Quincy 
Straight ahead. 
_Leo 
Booster, retract! 
_Quincy 
Let's get that baton. 
_June 
Where's she going now? 
_Annie 
She's flying down into the forest. 
_June 
Oh, that's California's redwood forest. 
It has the tallest trees in the world. 
_Leo 
Rocket, down there! 
Follow that bald eagle! 
_Quincy 
Come on! That bald eagle's getting away! 
_Leo 
With my baton. 
_June 
Where did she go? 
Do you hear her? 
_Annie 
Yeah, up there! Up there! 
_Leo 
Come on, guys, this way! 
_Annie 
I can't hear her anymore. 
_Quincy 
Um, Annie. 
_Leo 
Wow! Look at all those animals. 
_June 
Looks like they're having a meeting. 
_Quincy 
Yeah, a big animal meeting. 
_June 
There sure are a lot of animals. 
What animals do you see? 
That animal looks like he's in charge of the meeting. 
What animal is that? 
A lion, right! 
_Quincy 
If he's in charge of this forest, I'll bet he knows where the bald eagle went. 
_Leo 
Annie! Wait! 
_Annie 
No, Leo, I can do this. 
Singing is my favourite thing to do in the world. 
We lost our baton 
Yes, we lost our baton 
Have you seen the bald eagle 
Who took our baton? 
_Quincy 
I don't think they heard her. 
_June 
Leo, she needs to sing louder. 
_Leo 
Let's help Annie! 
Sing with us! 
_Quincy 
Go on, sing loud! 
_All 
We lost our baton 
Yes, we lost our baton 
Have you seen the bald eagle 
Who took our baton? 
_Annie 
They saw the bald eagle. 
Thanks for singing with me. 
Do you know where the bald eagle went? 
Listen! The wolf is sending a message. 
_Quincy 
The whales are answering. 
They've seen the bald eagle. 
_Leo 
Come on, let's go get my baton! 
_Annie 
Thanks, animals. 
_June 
Good thing they were peaceable. 
_Leo 
Buckle your seat belts. 
_All 
Seat belts buckled! 
_Leo 
We're going to need a lot of power to blast off. 
Put your hands on your lap and pat with us to the beat. 
Pat, pat, pat, pat. 
Now raise both arms and say "blast off!" 
_All 
Blast off! 
Whales! 
_June 
Orca whales! 
_Annie 
They're singing. 
They saw the bald eagle. 
_Quincy 
Yes! They saw her! 
_Leo 
But where? 
_June 
Do you see the bald eagle? 
Where is she? 
_Annie 
Yes, yes, we've found her. 
_Quincy 
All right! 
_Leo 
My baton! My baton! 
_Annie 
But where is she going? 
_Quincy 
She's flying all the way across the water and way up onto that huge rock. 
I cannot believe it! 
That bald eagle took your baton all the way to the top. 
_Leo 
Rocket, wait! 
It's not safe for you to land here. 
Land down there. 
_June 
Look, the eagle's leaving her nest. 
Now we can go and get Leo's baton. 
_Annie 
But how are we going to get across the water? 
_Quincy 
Hey, guys, I think the whales want to help us. 
_June 
I know what to do, and it's my favourite thing to do in the world. 
Follow me. 
We can dance across the water. 
_Quincy 
Dance across the water? 
How do we do that? 
_June 
We can do my super ballet leap from whale to whale. 
But I need you to clap the beat for me. 
Come on, I'll show you. 
I love to dance 
Yes, I love to dance 
Yes, I love, I love 
I love to dance 
_Quincy 
She's dancing across the whales. 
_Leo 
Go, June! 
_June 
Come on. You can do it, too. 
_Leo 
June is right, we can do this. 
But we need your help. 
Clap to the beat. 
Clap, clap, clap. 
_All 
We love to dance 
Yes, we love to dance 
Yes, we love, we love 
We love to dance 
Yay! 
_Leo 
Thanks for clapping. 
_Quincy 
Thanks, whales. 
Nice dancing with you. 
_Annie 
Come on! 
_Leo 
You guys wait here. 
I'm going to get my baton. 
_Annie 
I'm going with you. 
_Leo 
No. You guys have been great, but now it's up to me. 
I have to get my baton. 
_Quincy 
Go, Leo! 
_June 
Yeah! 
_Annie 
Go, Leo! 
_Quincy 
He's almost to the nest. 
_June 
You're doing it! 
_Annie 
Yay, Leo, almost! 
_June 
Keep climbing! 
_Annie 
Keep going! 
_Leo 
Whoa! That's a big nest. 
But where's my baton? 
Do you see my baton? 
Yeah, there it is! You found it! 
_June 
It's too high. 
Oh, no! 
He can't reach it. 
_Quincy 
Let me see! 
He's getting ready. 
He's running, and he got his baton! 
_Leo 
Hurray! My baton! I got it back. 
_Quincy 
Oh, look, the eagle is coming back. 
_Leo 
And there are her chicks. 
Bald eagle, by mistake you took my baton. 
It's not a stick, see? 
OK, baton, let's do some conducting. 
Conduct with me. 
Put your hands in the air. 
Now move your arms to the beat of the music. 
Like this. 
I love my baton 
Yes, I love my baton 
Yes, I love, I love 
I love my baton 
Mission completion! 
It's time for... 
the curtain call. 
Let's clap for our team. 
Clap with us! 
Let's clap for Annie, Quincy, June... 
_All 
Leo! Rocket! 
_Leo 
And my baton. Clap for my baton. 
_June 
Let's clap for the art. 
The Peaceable Kingdom by Edward Hicks. 
_Leo 
And now... the moment you've all been waiting for. 
Let's clap really hard for the special music we heard today. 
Peer Gynt Suite No. 1: Morning Mood by Edvard Grieg. 
_Annie 
Yay, Grieg! 
_June 
You helped a lot today. 
_Quincy 
Give yourself a hand. 
Go on, clap for yourself. 
_June 
Bravo! 
_Annie 
Yay for you! 
_June 
Bravo! 
_Leo 
See you on the next mission.
