about

Listen to the adventures of a fish and an American Dipper as they trek upstream in search of Salmon's birthplace, set to the spellbinding Sonata for Flute, Viola and Harp by Claude Debussy. (Special tip for tired parents, caregivers and children: tracks 1 & 2 end with Salmon & Dipper falling asleep…)

There’s also a journey for Little Elk as he follows his herd from one feeding ground to another, climbing a mountain, braving a snowstorm, eluding predators and playing with friends along the way. The evocative Petite Suite by André Jolivet sets the tone and guides the story.

Would you like to hear it all in French too? Check out StoryMusic’s parallel release, Le voyage merveilleux de Saumon & Dipper + Jour d’hiver du Wapiti.

StoryMusic is hugely grateful for the support of the Alberta Foundation for the Arts in making these recordings possible!
