Not your Grandma's Peter and the Wolf

Again, my choir teacher was too busy to have us rehearse, so again, he put a movie on for us. It's a new version of Peter and the Wolf done in stop motion photography. The puppets are incredibly lifelike. It won an Oscar last year. Hundreds of years ago, a composer by the name of Prokofiev composed a work that was adapted into this new version of this story. The different characters are represented by different intruments. This short film was beautifully done.

  1. Cool movie! I remember studying Peter and the Wolf when I had choir...no, I didn't know the original composer...I'm not THAT old!
