The story of Peter and the Wolf and the musical voices which tell Prokofiev’s classic tale have captured children’s imaginations for generations. As narrated by the internationally acclaimed actor, Colm Feore, the story comes to life for a new generation. The disk includes a new work for orchestra and narrator — Last Minute Lulu. Author and narrator Christopher Paul Curtis, as the winner of both the Newbery Award and the Coretta Scott King Medal, has become one of the most important voices in children's literature today. The charming score for Last Minute Lulu was composed by Brent Lee, a Canadian musician, scholar and educator.
