Peter en de Wolf is a symphonic fairy-tale composed by Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev (Сергей Сергеевич Прокофьев) in 1936. The work pairs narrated storytelling with distinct orchestral motifs for each character, serving as an accessible, pedagogical orchestral piece from Prokofiev's interwar period that introduces listeners to instrument timbres and thematic characterisation.
