What happens when an impatient young apprentice tries to cast his own magic spells for the first time? It's a water catastrophe!
Find out how his adventure unfolds in The Sorcerer's Apprentice, the latest installment of YourClassical Storytime, featuring illustrations by acclaimed children's author Nancy Carlson. Along the way, we'll hear some wonderful melodies by French composer Paul Dukas.
