about

Like so many families throughout the world, Maurice Sendak’s classic kids’ book was a favorite in the Gunther household. I composed the music when my kids were still young and when the book was in regular rotation in our nightly story time. It was a joy to revisit the story some fifteen years later in life, with kids fully grown and fond memories of sharing it together. I tried to capture some of the mischievousness, innocence, and melancholy that I find in the piece.
– John Gunther
