Jarvis to narrate Peter And The Wolf
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 22 November 2010
Jarvis Cocker will appear as the narrator at four performances of ‘Peter And The Wolf’, Sergei Prokofiev’s classical composition for children, at the Royal Festival Hall in London over the Christmas break. This is good news, and anyone who remembers the Pulp frontman’s shortlived storytelling podcast will attest.
The live performance will accompany Suzie Templeton’s Oscar winning animated adaptation of the story, and will see Cocker reading a poetic version of the narration created by Simon Armitage. The performances will take place on 29 and 30 Dec.
