Sergei Prokofievs Peter and the Wolf:
With a Fully-Orchestrated and
Narrated CD by Sergei Prokofiev
Excellent, Enriching
THERE IS NO better way to introduce children to classical music than with
Prokofiev’s musical fairy tale of the little boy (played by all the strings of the
orchestra) who, with the help of a bird (played by the flute), outsmarted the
big, bad wolf (played by the French horns). And now with this book and CD
package, children can look and listen all at the same time. A new retelling
by Janet Schulman follows the basic story, but with a kinder ending for
both the big bad wolf and the argumentative duck. Peter Malone’s
paintings have the luminous quality of old Russian masters. The CD, with
music performed by the Cincinnati Pops and word-for-word narration by
Peter A. Thomas, was made exclusively for this book and CD package.
Personal Review: Sergei Prokofievs Peter and the Wolf: With a
Fully-Orchestrated and Narrated CD by Sergei Prokofiev
We recently were able to see the play version at a local children's theater
and my daughter became hooked on the music and story line. After weeks
of downloading the music on line, we finally bought her this book, and I'm
so glad we did! The music is beautiful, and she is able to identify all the

characters by the music playing and identify the instruments. We like the
gentler story line, as our 4 year old frightens easily. This is a great buy!
