Concert information


Info

Peter’s grandfather lives with many animals near the forest. A wolf lives there too, and he has his eye on Peter’s animal friends. But the clever boy knows how to protect them – the fluttering bird, the waddling duck, the stealthy cat… and each animal has its own melody. Sergei Prokofiev’s Peter and the Wolf is perhaps the best-known musical fairy-tale. Author and narrator Tilman Birr brings the story to the stage in a new version, while the music brings the characters to life and introduces the instruments of the orchestra. Also involved: a foley artist who provides crackling suspense, fluttering wings, and the menacing growl of the wolf.
