Natalie Merchant and Nonesuch Records present Cabinet of Wonder, an album featuring music and videos from her multimedia collaboration with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Chicago Children’s Theatre. Designed as a free enrichment program that introduces music, poetry, and the dramatic arts, Cabinet of Wonder reimagines Mother Goose and her rhymes for a new generation of young children through modern interpretations of the classic child-centered canon. 

Releasing in late summer, the digital album brings this unprecedented public arts project to a wider audience. Two album tracks, “Little Miss Muffett” & “Peter Pumpkin Eater” are available today along with accompanying videos. Pre-save the album now.
