Sergei Prokofiev feat. Eugene Ormandy & Philadelphia Orchestra -
David Bowie narrates Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf & The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra
Peter and the Wolf, Op. 67 (Remastered): Introduction
This is the story of Peter and the Wolf.
Each character in this tail...
is going to be represented by different instrument of the orchestra.
For instance, the bird will be played by the flute, like this.
(Flute)
Here's the duck, played by the oboe.
(Oboe)
The cat, by the clarinet.
(Clarinet)
The basson will represent grandfather.
(Basson)
The wolf, by the french horns.
(French Horns)
And Peter! By the strings.
(Strings)
The blast of the hunters shotguns, played by the kettle drums.
(Kettle Drums)
Are you sitting comfortably?
Then, I should begin.
Only one morning, Peter opened the gate
Each character in this tail...
is going to be represented by different instrument of the orchestra.
For instance, the bird will be played by the flute, like this.
(Flute)
Here's the duck, played by the oboe.

The cat, by the clarinet.

(French Horns)
And Peter! By the strings.
(Strings)
The blast of the hunters shotguns, played by the kettle drums.
(Kettle Drums)
Are you sitting comfortably?
Then, I should begin.
Only one morning, Peter opened the gate
