Minnesota Orchestra Visual Entertainment (MOVE) was a business venture established to bring classical music and the arts to children and adults in new and innovative ways. Three products were developed under the NotesAlive brand name: On the Day You Were Born by Debra Frasier, Nutcracker: The Untold Story, and Dr. Seuss's My Many Colored Days . The products received numerous national awards from the American Library Association, Sesame Street, and TV Guide.
New scores were commissioned for the Dr. Seuss's My Many Colored Days ( Richard Einhorn ) and On the Day You Were Born ( Steve Heitzeg ). The original music of Tchaikovsky was used for Maurice Sendak 's Nutcracker: The Untold Story . All works were recorded live by the Minnesota Orchestra, conducted by Eiji Oue and William Eddins .
