A review by amynbell
Peter and the Wolf by Sergei Prokofiev
5.0
I'd somehow never heard this before. Music from it tends to get quoted often, but I never knew the origin. I enjoyed how each character has its own instrument which helps the listener to better imagine the story through the music. The story is simple, but my 6-year-old listened to it on repeat for several days after we listened to it together.
I've often imagined my own stories to go along with classical music pieces. It's just a shame there aren't more musical pieces with story accompaniments for children.
