A lone trombone playing solo is joined by a trumpet in a duet until a French horn makes it a trio, and so on, as ten instruments, one by one, gather together for a joyous musical performance.

Reviews
...
This recording was among 29 recorded books recommended by the Association of Library Service to Children of the American Library Association in January 2000. ZIN! ZIN! ZIN! A VIOLIN met with exuberant reception in the book world when it was first published, particularly for its illustration. (It won a 1996 Caldecott Honor.) But the book wasn't complete until now. Moss's exhilarating story of 10 instruments taking their parts, one by one, in a musical performance comes to life with the addition of the notes, tones and reverberations of the instruments themselves.
