You mean the educational film Britten wrote his "Young Person's Guide" for?
How easy!  Your title "Music Is More than Mere Sounds," suggested something
more quaint, like his score for "Love from a Stranger.".  The "Young
Person's Guide" is a brilliant working of the traditional passacaglia and
variation form, and deserves to be better known by its original title.

There is an excellent recording on Hyperion, with Nigel Hawthorne reading
Auden's verses.
