Synopsis[]
Rocket shares his favorite story with the quartet: "The Firebird." The storybook contains animated illustrations showing the Firebird's spreading of music in Russia wherever it goes. However, a wicked ogre, Katschai traps the Firebird and silences all music in the nation. The team wants to rescue the Firebird so they set off on an adventure together to save the Firebird from the ogre's clutches and bring all of the music back to Russia before Katschai strikes up.
DVD Description[]
Before you can say "Blast Off!", the Little Einsteins are zooming through the sky in a new movie that's jam-packed with action, music, magic, and fun. Besides Rocket, what's big, red, and can fly? Meet Rocket's new friend: the mysterious Firebird! She sprinkles magical music power everywhere she flies, filling the world with beauty and joy.
But when a mean ogre captures Firebird, it's up to Rocket, Leo, June, Quincy, and Annie to travel all the way to Russia to set her free and bring music back to the world. Soar over the golden spires of a Byzantine palace. Discover St. Petersburg, and explore snowy Siberia, where you'll meet a freshwater baby seal and so much more. Remember, only with your help -- singing, dancing, and playing instruments -- can the Little Einsteins complete their mission and save the day? Inspired by the music of Igor Stravinsky's "Firebird" ballet and filled with messages of teamwork, friendship, and compassion.
Trivia[]
- This is the second full length special of Little Einsteins after Our Huge Adventure, that started the series and serves as the series finale of the entire show.
- This is a Movie Night special.
- Since there is no season 3, it is heavily implied that the Little Einsteins might gain their music powers which could have been used in future episodes. It's also unknown if they'll ever use Rocket to travel back in time to meet the composers or continue to solve missions, as the show's nature is about art and music, rather than science-fiction.
- The film was aired on television 3 years after its initial DVD release.
- This special has higher-quality animation due to having a larger budget.
- Unlike a regular episode, this special is the length of two 22-minute episodes.
- This is an only episode/special of Little Einsteins to use a different credits song rather than using the theme song.
- This special uses a 5.1 track.
- For some reason, the trailer uses only season 1 footage, yet this was released around season 2.
- This episode was released two years before the official TV premiere of 2009 and three years before the re-release of 2010.
