François Couperin. The Alarm Clock
A little film about genesis
The idea of creating a musical-animated album belongs to Irina Margolina.
Classical composers’ works for children are performed by young musicians, students of Jacob Flier Children School of Arts.
My little movie is one episode from "Children's Album. Film 1. BAROQUE AND ROMANTICISM"
Design is based on my 2002 year series of half-abstract drawings “Wooden Horse”.
