I own "Peter and the Wolf" in several wonderful shots, but this takes the top position! Mathias Wieman has us intrigued and captivated as children! That has not changed to this day! He is still unsurpassed with his haunting, but always soothing narrator's voice! Masterful! The "rest" of the CD should children and adults a lot of joy! Children need music - and this one especially! Highly recommended!
