RJE PRODUCTIONS LLC ANNOUNCES JUNE RELEASE OF WORLD-PREMIERE PETER AND THE WOLF ALBUM
MADISON, Wisconsin -- RJE Productions is pleased to announce the June 23rd release of a world premiere album, Peter And The Wolf -- And Other Selected Favorites.
This recording of Peter And The Wolf is a musical world premiere, as the album features the first ever
recording of Prokofiev’s beloved children’s tale as performed on the theatre pipe organ with a narrator.
In 1936, Russian-born composer
Sergei Prokofiev was commissioned by the Central Children’s Theatre to write a light piece of music for children
that
would introduce young listeners to the instruments of the orchestra. The result – which the composer reportedly composed
in a single week –
is one of the best-known works of classical music for children.
This album captures Jelani's
interpretation of Peter And The Wolf
with celebrity narrator George Woods as performed on January 15, 2005 for the
ninth annual Wurlitzer Weekend event.
In addition,
the album features over 60 minutes of selected favorites, including:
- Peter And The Wolf
- This Could Be The Start Of Something Big
- Give Me The Simple Life
- Here's That Rainy Day
- Symphonic Suite From Porgy And Bess
- Overture / Catfish Row
