Monkey’s Jungle Jam, by Victoria Kintner Griswold, is the story of a monkey’s search through a jungle to find musical friends. Young children are invited to move
along to music, listen to a story, and watch ten musicians from the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra perform. Monkey’s Jungle Jam uses common and unusual animals from the jungle to introduce common and unusual instruments found in a symphony orchestra. Musical selections featured in the video include excerpts from Ravel’s Mother Goose Suite, Dvorak’s New World Symphony, Beethoven Symphony #6, and Saint-Saëns’ Carnival of the Animals. Indiana composer James Beckel composed the Finale.

About the branch
As the hub of the Indianapolis Public Library system, Central Library showcases renowned architecture and services. The original 1917 building, designed by Paul Cret and constructed of Indiana limestone in the Greek Doric style, was considered one of the most outstanding secular buildings in the U.S. Its six-story glass and steel-framed addition, designed by Evans Woollen, opened in 2007.
