Episode 1: Let's Race

Melody - CBeebies - BBC

Melody imagines two dinosaurs having a race. One is fast and the other is slow.

Preschool mixed-media music show. Melody listens to Dance of the Knights from Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet, which makes her imagine two dinosaurs having a race.

Mum and Melody are making lunch. Melody is in a hurry to eat hers because she wants to listen to some music, but spills her drink down her dinosaur top. Mum says sometimes it's best to do things slowly and finds some music for Melody to listen to.

She has chosen Dance of the Knights from Romeo and Juliet, composed by Prokofiev. Melody imagines two dinosaurs having a race. Initially the smaller dinosaur is winning, but it stops to take a rest. The larger dinosaur plods on slowly but surely and wins the race. Melody's verdict is that slow is best.
