Remember listening for the piccolo "playing" the part of Peter? Prokofiev composed his
Peter and the Wolf specifically to introduce children to the voices of the instruments.
This is a refreshingly high-caliber narrated performance of the full-length orchestral piece by the London Philharmonic. Designed to engage and delight young children this is a wonderful introduction to classical music.
Tracks also include a modern reinterpretation of this classic piece, a biography, and an interactive song, plus a 24-page booklet.
Parents’ Choice and
Dr. Toy Awards. 68 minutes. Ages 4 and up.
