Abstract:
Peter and the Wolf was originally composed by Sergei Prokofiev to introduce children to sounds of symphonic music. These familiar themes have been given a jazzy new twist, using jazz-combo instruments and the free spirit of improvisation to tell the story. Listeners will also hear these instruments featured in Mother Goose nursery rhymes as these childhood favorites become bright, appealing jazz tunes.

While looking for the book, I came across the audio versions...
