Customer Rating: Summary: My kids love this! Comment: I remember this from when I was a child and I'm so happy to be able to share it with my own children. They absolutely love this: in the car, at home, to fall asleep to. The music is just as phenomenal as I remember it and my kids love identifying the different instruments!
Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent EXCEPT for the skips in track 1 Comment: I LOVE the narration of this version. David Bowie does an outstanding job of representing all of the different characters. My only problem is that there are some "skips" in track 1. I'm not sure if this is representative of all downloads of this MP3 CD or if something went screwy during my personal download, but it's very disappointing.
Customer Rating: Summary: My son loves it... Comment: Just bought this for my son, he loves it. Ever since he started listening to it, he is always humming the tune of the music. Great introduction for kids. BTW my son is 5.
Customer Rating: Summary: REMINISCENT Comment: I LOVED LISTENING TO IT WITH MY GRANDCHILDREN AND WATCHING THEIR FACES AS THEY LISTENED TO THE INSTRUMENTS AND THE STORY. I RECALL THE SAME EXPERIENCE WITH MY OWN CHILDREN MANY YEARS AGO. THEY WERE EQUALLY DELIGHTED WITH THE INTRO TO CLASSICAL MUSIC.
Customer Rating: Summary: This is the one you're looking for! Comment: We took our children to the Santa Cruz Symphony's production of Peter and the Wolf. Since the concert, they have been very interested in this classical music collection and listen to it regularly. We purchased this CD and the book "Peter and The Wolf" by Vagin Vladimir (fabulous illustrations). Together, they're a charming gift that any child will love and it could very well be their introduction to classical music for a lifetime.
