This beautiful symphonic fairy tale for children comes alive with narration by the legendary David Bowie, recorded in 1978 and made exciting and current in the form of a Tonie. The narrator tells the children's story of Peter and the Wolf while the orchestra illustrates it. A combination of music and storytelling on this double bill will delight children and parents alike in this musical adventure by the Philadelphia Orchestra.
