EP33 - Lamellophones - 00:00
At the edge of Taratabong's pond, Snaree is skimming pebbles. Trumpee arrives, watches Snaree et applauds his best shots. Snaree gets enthusiastic and makes a great shot with many rebounds, but the last bounce makes a strange sound as if the stone hit something. Suddenly a moaning jew's-harp comes out of the water, followed by his brothers. They all live in the pond (like frogs) and they all start to leap and to croak. Snaree is upset about his hurtful shot and apologizes. The jew's-harps reassure him, nobody was injured. The 'frogs' invite the meloditties for a ride on the lake. At the end, Trumpee and Snaree bring the jew's-harps to see Maestro Nomo, who is taking a bath.
EP34 - The tympani twins - 06:08
Snaree is looking for mama Drumba; he asks Trumpee, who tells him to search in a bush nearby. Snaree goes to the bush but instead of Drumba he finds Tymp, a sad kettledrum who is waiting for his twin brother. Snaree rushes home to seek help. He finds Bone, and together with Trumpee and Tymp they leave to search Tump. Suddenly we hear the voice of Iolin. The group asks him if by chance he saw a kettledrum that looks like Tymp. Iolin replies that he actuallly did. After a brief research, a strange music is heard,it is the sound of a kettledrum mixed with the sound of Drumba. Tymp is excited. It's the voice of Tump, my brother! Finally, Tymp finds Tump and the brothers play together. Like all twins their voice is not the same: two instruments can't have the exact same voice, even if they are twins. For the final concert, we listen to a glissando with the Tympani brothers playing the melody and the trumpet, trombone and violin accompanying.
EP35 - Ghing Gong - 12:30
The bright sun shines in the Taratabong's sky. Trumpee, Snaree and Pino are a bit stunned by the heat. They head to the lake in order to refresh themselves. They are walking near the shore when a big cloud comes and hides the sun, at the same moment; the meloditties see a big golden disc underwater. “Oh oh ! The sun fell in the water!“. Panic! Snaree runs to get mama Drumba, while Trumpee and Pino run to the music school to get Maestro Nomo.
EP36 - What soon, the bassoon, saw - 18:27
Snaree, Trumpee and Pino are sliding on leaves as big as sleds. After an impressive ride, Snaree sneaks into a heap of snow. He emerges disguised as a 'monster', with the leaf on his head, and a snow mustache. This gives Pino an idea.
