Peter and the Wolf

Album by Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev & Sir John Gielgud & Academy of London & Richard Stamp

Peter and the Wolf is a symphonic fairy tale by Sergei Prokofiev, composed in 1936. Scored for orchestra with distinctive instrumental motifs representing characters, it blends melodic clarity and colourful orchestration to introduce listeners, particularly children, to orchestral timbres and exemplifies Prokofiev's interest in programme music and narrative composition during the mid-1930s.
