5.0 out of 5 stars ***ALREADY RELEASED ON DVD***, December 14, 2003
By A Customer
This title is not available alone on DVD but you can buy "MAKE MINE MUSIC". This is an old title from Disney and it includes "Peter and the Wolf".

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my All Time Favorites, March 16, 2002
By TundraVision (o/~ from the Land of Sky Blue Waters o/~) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This is one of the most endearing and enduring Disney cartoons ever! Serge Prokofieff's timeless music orchestrates the Russian folk tale of little Peter and his "hunting party" who go off to trap the big bad wolf. Sterling Holloway's voice is perfect as narrator. Each character in the tale has his/her own theme played by a different orchestral instrument - teaching the viewer to distinguish sounds and themes while enjoying the show. Warning: As a child (many, many years ago) I found Sonia the Duck's encounter with the snapping, snarling, hungry Wolf much scarier and distressing than Oz's Wicked Witch of the West and her Flying Monkeys - so you might want to pre-view this before showing it to a very young child.

Also included on the video are the cute and funny "Silly Symphony" a non-verbal lesson in international harmony and "Music Land" featuring favorite Disney cartoon characters.

If you like this video, I recommend you also try the CD "Heigh-Ho! Mozart."

5.0 out of 5 stars Educational and Fun!, July 7, 2000
By A Customer
Peter and the Wolf is a great way to introduce the instruments of the orchestra to children. They love the animation, the characters, the movie, all of it! In addition, they learn to recognize the sounds of the various instruments, without even realizing they are learning. My music students begged me to show the video a second time during our music camp this summer. It's a great way to get kids interested in the classics!

I really like Disney's Peter and The Wolf. I remember seeing this in school, I think it was the music teacher who showed it to us. It was very entertaining!
