True to the mission of the Concert4Kids, Peter and the Wolf introduces children to the instruments of the orchestra with a representation of each character in this dramatic story. The characters – boy, bird, duck, cat, grandfather, wolf, hunters – and their doings have been beloved by younger and older audiences since introduced by Sergei Prokofiev in 1936. The ISO proudly carried on this tradition much to the delight of an engaged audience. From the classic of the past to dreams of the future and outer space, the orchestra and ballet showcase came together for a beautiful afternoon of sensory delight, emotional joy and patriotism.
Thank you to our featured performers: the Irving Symphony Orchestra, Ballet Ensemble of Texas, and Nick Alexander-narrator.
