Beethoven’s Wigfeaturing Richard Perlmutter

Animated Multimedia Concerts

Beethoven's Wig has collaborated with the award-winning Smiley Guy Studios to produce an incredible multimedia classical concert like no other!

It stars Richard Perlmutter, who not only wrote the words to all Beethoven's Wig songs and is the lead singer, but also accompanies himself on piano, guitar and mandolin.  The show features a colorful cast of cartoon characters projected on a big screen. There's a violin playing raccoon, an opera-singing frog, a cello playing robot, a dinosaur diva and many more animated characters. They sing along with, play, dance and talk to Perlmutter and make up his cartoon orchestra.  A very animated Beethoven leads them all.  

The appeal of the Beethoven's Wig Animated Stage Show is multi-generational as its wonderful mix of education, entertainment and comedy is as timeless as the music of Beethoven, Bach and Mozart itself.
