Peter and the Wolf Live

Royal Festival Hall
Thu 30 Dec 2010 4:00pm

Allan Wilson	conductor

Prokofiev	Peter & the Wolf

Based on one of the most popular pieces of classical music for children, Peter & the Wolf Live is a magical musical and cinematic experience for the whole family.

The stunningly beautiful Oscar®-winning film Peter & the Wolf brings to life Prokofiev's classic introduction to the orchestra through the enthralling story of a brave boy called Peter and his quest to defeat the Wolf.

Legendary musician Jarvis Cocker introduces the story and the instruments of the orchestra, which play character roles including the lovable Duck, represented by the oboe, the slinky Cat, played by the clarinet and the grumpy Grandfather, brought to life by the bassoon. Suzie Templeton's darkly magical film then brings these characters to life before your eyes.

Suitable for all ages although younger children might find some scenes scary.

Southbank Centre presents Peter & the Wolf Live in association with Breakthru Films.

Audio described performance on Thursday 30 December, 4pm
