Frederic Pipkin, a lovable young lad named after the great pianist, Chopin, doesn’t appear to have any musical talent.  Piano lessons with Mr. Stricter prove to be disastrous, so he has a go at the cello, the oboe, the clarinet… but sadly nothing fits. One glorious day, serendipity takes place when he attends his sister’s youth musical recital and stumbles across the wonderful world of conducting. Who knew that this could be his new found passion? To the amazement of the Pipkin family, what follows is the discovery of Frederic’s new gift and a fabulous new song.

The accompanying CD comprised of a dozen pop-rock songs picks up on different aspects of the story.
