David Bowie Narrates Prokofiev’s Peter And The Wolf (1978) is a classical
music album containing David Bowie’s narration of Sergei Prokofiev’s
1936 composition Peter And The Wolf. The music is performed by the
Philadelphia Orchestra conducted by Eugene Ormandy. The album
reached number 136 on the US Pop Albums chart.
Side One contains the narration by David Bowie of public domain
material originally written by Prokofiev. The second side of this LP
features Eugene Ormandy conducting Benjamin Britten’s Young
Person’s Guide To The Orchestra with the Philadelphia Orchestra.
Ormandy and the aforementioned musicians from Philly also back up
Bowie on side one.
Critics lauded the album, saying Bowie ‘found his most charming
guise since Hunky Dory.’ He tells the well-known fable with his usual
eloquence and style, and gives instructions at the beginning for kids to
understand how the music corresponds to characters in the story. The
accompaniment from the Philadelphia Orchestra is first rate.
The Music On Vinyl re-release includes detailed liner notes on the
project by Mary Campbell, specifically geared to “introduce children to
the sounds of the individual instruments in the symphony orchestra.”
Both Prokofiev and Britten wrote their respective pieces with this aim
in mind.
