Sergey Sergeevich Prokofiev

Sergei Prokofiev's symphonic tale "Peter and the Wolf" is popular among both adults and very young listeners. She was presented by the Moscow Philharmonic and even staged for young viewers and their parents. The writing carries a teaching motive and teaches children to recognize each musical instrument, introduces all of its characteristic features. Its description periodically alternates with the sounding of small passages, which gives fullness and captures the listener. Each character represents a specific tool. S. Prokofiev masterfully noticed all the timbre features of musical instruments and related them to the main characters. Thus, he emphasized the obnoxity of the oboe, giving him the role of a duck, the little bird draws the lightness and airiness of the flute, and the grumbling of the grandfather showed the bassoon, the lowest of the woodwinds.

All the action takes place around the mischievous boy Petit, who brightly spends his day. He meets on his way a lot of characters, each of which represents a specific tool. But not all the heroes of the tale are kind and funny, on the way he meets an evil wolf, who was very well shown by the French horn. But thanks to the help of a small brave bird and the hunters who arrived in time, the boy manages to deftly escape from a predator.
