ald backstage tucked away in the darkest of places a group of string instruments squirmed in their cases the rehearsal was done no musicians about when a case opened wide and a cello jumped out he knocked on the cases of three of his friends out popped a viola and two violins we're stuck here again cello sighed with a groan no music to play waiting here all alone since we don't have a concert till later today how about an adventure let's all run away that seems a bit risky said violin one but vi
olin too said come on let's have some fun Viola said let's build our own rocket ship with cello below violins at the tip so they stacked themselves High Flames shot from their base and with one big Kaboom the strings launched into [Music] space yippe cheered the friends but the rocket slowed down their notes flew apart and they fell towards the ground they tumbled and spun making quite a commotion with one big klunk the strings splashed in the [Music] ocean jump on Cried Out cello I'll keep us a
float violins stand up straight make a sale for our boat theola he added we need to scadaddle she offered her scroll and together they [Music] paddled [Music] [Applause] [Music] they bobbed up and down on the turbulent seas and soon ran ashore by a path lined with trees what now asked fola our boats come unglued we could build a bike replied violin to good idea said cello line up behind me we'll push off together on my count of three the bicycle wobbled till each found the beat keep steady calle
d violin one from his seat with a unified song they took off to explore on a musical Bicycle Built just for four [Music] they weaved through the trees soldiered up a big hill but felt their bows quiver as the winds brought a chill they pedal and pushed but the bike wouldn't go then violin one cried we're stuck in the snow with a slip in the slush and an icy Cur plop they found themselves perched on a high Mountaintop hop on called out cello use me as a sled one by one they climbed up hiding eyes
full of dread they slowly inched forward but none were prepared when suddenly whoosh the sled shot through the [Music] air [Music] they curved and they swerved with their mouths open wide till a muddy Cur Splat put an end to the ride they sighed with relief as they brushed off the dirt and tuned all their strings checking no one was hurt we're lost cello noted we need to get back our concert starts soon who can get us on track on track cried Viola that's it for machain we'll return to our home
in a musical Train choo choo called the strings going faster and faster as Viola conducted the train like a master [Music] the train hummed along the quartet found its Groove till they slowed with a screech now the wheels wouldn't move [Music] a hot sandy desert yelled violin one we'll never get home it's over we're done but violin 2o said let's turn upside down if we fill up with air we can rise from the ground of of course said Viola a hot air balloon we'll float through the air and arrive at
home soon with Scrolls pointing downward they puffed and they blew it's working keep going called violin [Music] to [Music] the balloon grew and grew and made a high squeaky sound then let out a pop and collaps to the [Music] ground who did that not me what just happened they stuttered while pointing their bows and accusing each other then faces grew sad too discouraged to try they fell into silence without a dry eye but suddenly music poured out from nowhere the Victorious call of a horn filled
the air [Music] YooHoo over here the strings jumped and yelped and violin 2 cried our friends here to help hello called out horn thank goodness you're found string instruments aren't meant to travel around no need to make bicycles boats or a sleigh the power has been in the music you play remember your home as you play from your hearts we'll travel through music the instant it starts [Music] a beautiful tune formed a musical ride and they landed backstage with the horn alongside performing with
wonder that night in their Hall harmonious m magic emerged from them all their Melody shimmered with joyful Delight transporting the audience all through the night from that moment onward the strings never strayed they found their Adventures through the music they [Music] played [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] the end thank you so much for your amazing help telling the story of the runaway strings we miss you all so much and can't wait till we can see you again soon bye-bye now th
