Peter and the Wolf, Prokofiev's musical fairy tale, has been delighting children since 1936. Nearly 60 years later, in 1995, the young choreographer Matthew Hart created a witty choreographed version for the Royal Ballet School with designs by Ian Spurling. Described as an utterly delightful ballet and a perfect showcase for the younger students, by the Royal Ballets Director, Monica Mason, it was staged again and recorded for this DVD in 2010.

Reviews
"Matthew Hart''s realisation of Prokofiev's score as a ballet had first been seen in 1995 and it works very well indeed...The choreography is simple without being simplistic and Hart tells the story very well." (Musicweb International)
