Prokofiev: Peter and the Wolf 1/3

[h4s4t4n]

Whoever made the book the puppet is holding doesn't know the Russian alphabet.

[KirstenShiel]

The audience puppets used to scare the shit out of me.

[greeega101]

this actually really scared me and my sister when we were kids.

[brenzywoo]

Thanks for putting this video up i can finish my homework now ! :)

[dafuki]

anyone knows the name of this puppet show? i think there was a show like this on tv

[TheMediumTube]

Duck = Hater's Gonna Hate

[nigahiga10able]

[betonmolenislol]

1:50

[0monolith]

LOL NARRORATED BY STING

[jimmerol]

puppets scare the shit out of me.......

[hercourtness]

Given who and what I grew up around, I don't think I would have ever heard of this if I didn't go to private school at the time. Still love this piece. Ah takes me back to 2nd grade music class.

[Tecnomy]

the bird with green hair was scary :(

[aradacar]

only in russia would this look so bad ass

[garysmodmaster]

i fast forwarded and that puppet scared the crap out of me lol

[SandTeddyBear]

did they have to use the Marks brothers for the hunters? really?

[SDAddario88]

Doesn't anyone else realize that this is just a ploy to brainwash American children and plant the seed of communism in their minds?

[TimSimms7]

@SDAddario88 You are so right! That is exactly why Prokofiev wrote this piece - to brainwash American children! Thanks for putting this 1936 Russian symphony in perspective!

[ThePurpleWasteland]

thank you for the upload. takes me back to my childhood. these memories are so comforting.

[dnewhope777]

The Sting puppet is more than a little creepy.

[nevets0910]

Haha sting

[gasparhunt]

lol, some seriously dodgy subtitling!! :D 7:73

[afro20man]

Can I get this on dvd?

[SidRulz100]

@afro20man I bet

[MrKevinbratcher]

When did the Marx Bros. get into the play lol

[DevorahTheExplorah]

I had the volume up loud and I spazzed in my chair at 8:05 lolololol

[AshleyH2354]

@DevorahTheExplorah I just had a heart attack.

[alysbeth]

That would be mr sting

[TheMilagros59]

magnificat....  for someone wants to learn music

[LeMoNfAcE13]

This was in our music exam xD

[yaasper]

The Abbado puppet looks fucking high!

[yaasper]

Man, that is seriously the fattest picture of Prokofiev I have ever seen, on the cover page.

[MrJezeke]

I would really like to see the end of this version but I cannot find it! Is it just me? Who could help me, please??

[srg2457]

@MrJezeke Google "Spitting Image" "Peter and the Wolf"

[MrJezeke]

I can't find the last part of this story... Is it just me? I would really like to see the end of this version. Who can help me???

[Bedrinonen]

The subtitles are hilarious

[littlekewlgirlz]

Jesus Christ what the fuck did I just watch?

That is the scariest shit I have ever seen in my life...

[villi1997]

god the narrator is creepy

[ulquiorraschiffer69]

This is a really terrible movie and to the puppets are so weird...

[DarkMereKitten]

I remember watching this at my Nans house I really loved it but the wolf use to scare the shit out of me but now I'm older I realise he doesn't look as scary as I remember him but still great though. Also Love the set brilliant :)

[AndreaMimi1984]

Cool video.

[dweezy007]

Those captions are hilariously inaccurate!! love it

[mjp9mm]

I remember seeing this in elementary school and I'm about to graduate. :)

[mrbrianmccarthy]

Hope you load part 3 soon!! ; . 0

[Fitzster53]

Oh god the hunters are the marx brothers. 

[Nazizombies97]

this is fucking terrifying, i hate puppets

[realar]

@Nazizombies97 What about the muppets?

[alphabyronius]

sting rules

[taramazoku]

私が小学生の時NHKでやっていました。とっても好きで毎日見て­いて、これがきっかけでファンタジーが好きになりました！！

[Internationale7]

Did they get Spitting Image to do this?

[dmorgan0628]

That narrator used to offer me free candy when I was younger

[Schtuppit]

@dmorgan0628 Guess they will let ANYONE in the Marines now that DADT has been repealed.

[dmorgan0628]

@Schtuppit someone failed to find that comment funny tsk tsk.

[Schtuppit]

@dmorgan0628 Maybe you need to be funny. But hey--you still have the gift of being anonymous.

[stayoutofmyhouse]

i think i speak for everyones feelings at the begining when i say what the fuck

[Theantelaa]

Hey, I found the ending. You should check ShadowontheBeast channel.

[theswenpups]

@Theantelaa oh my god, someone finally puts in up! thx so much! <3

[groovyboomstick]

This is one of the few things that I remember from when I was really little. Still just as good now!

[kuyshina]

@groovyboomstick miss the good old days :/

[fireflambe]

oh no the duck has beer, better rate this pg-13

[SidRulz100]

@fireflambe I dunno, some kids movies had alcoholic drinks before this particular one.

[ImmaBigBubblyBear]

Is he supposed to be Sting?

[atrumdecretum]

No one narrates peter and the wolf better than Sting... never saw a video to go with it though

[smaxxx27]

david bowie is better

[BrownironStudios]

Is this kind off like spitting image combined with something else?

[tribegoddess]

Awww, but I wanta see part 3/3. Pleeeeeeze. See I said the magic word, so you better or I'll tell your Mommy on you, even if it does make me a tattle tail. So there.

[Ataro]

Does the duck have like an empty beer bottle...?

[MrXemnas1992]

O_o

Why are the Hunters made to resemble the Marx Brothers?

[tribegoddess]

@MrXemnas1992 Think of how many arrow you could shoot at the same time with Harpo's harp. And he can load it up as the Wolf tries to guess Groucho's magic 'woid'.

[Nachtmarchen]

Puppet Abbado is awesome.

[ext409]

this is terrifying

[Snizzlesunshine104]

I didn't say I was mad about it. I just said I was the duck, I love being the duck!

[jjbunny79]

i hate the fake cyrillic at 0:07, cant get more annoying then this :S

[Snizzlesunshine104]

this is so stupid!!!!!! i hate it, i am my dance studios performance and i am the duck!

[Sailormoonlovers101]

@Snizzlesunshine104 come on the duck is not that bad you sould be proud of it

[MNPaul47]

I watched this when I was in first grade! Im so nostalgic!

[bandboy11111]

Is the duck drunk

[NoMissBar19]

the subtitles aren't accurate, but i still liked this. :D

[mrpossibilities]

Prokofiev's music, in general, is like a magical, enchanted, haunted , cartoonesque world filled with mystery, enchantment and adventure.

[Pookaloofagus]

All the puppet people scare me o.o

[drockman92]

the voice of the narrator was somehow familiar. anyone know who it was and what they were in?

[theswenpups]

@drockman92 its sting

[drockman92]

@theswenpups wasn't sure if that was the voice actors real name. thought it was the puppet guy.

[beardedbroccoli]

I'm convinced this was filmed with the sole purpose of being horrifying.

[ShonaM6920]

I screamed when I saw that creepy narrator guys face from behind the book!

[kravanema]

Holy shit, the narrator puppet looks like Sting! D:

[michaelscot9]

Sting used one of his themes for THe musicin his song "russians" which is my personal favorite

[mattblack666]

Peter's theme stuck in my head. what's it called?

[QuickAtTheKeys]

i used to fall asleep to this everynight while going to bed..my dad would play it for me on the cd..it always used to make me fall asleep,Iike to think this song gave me my gift of musical abilities..

[bubblesandbackflips]

They should have used Patrick Stewart's narration; he's the best

[AlekWheeler]

i watched this dozens of times as a child and never realized that that was sting lol

[musicalyam]

CREEPIEST PUPPET GUY EVER. i CAN'T WATCH THIS. WHO COULD POSSIBLY THINK THIS WAS IN THE LEAST WAY APPEALING TO CHILDREN.

[MrYardlebird]

the duck doesnt sound like an oboe

and he shouldve used a blackboard with a fork for the cat... sorry Prokofiev...

[amyluvsmj]

I love peter, his eyes.. are so amazing

[troblemaka]

omg childhood memories wow

[luliyu]

HEY, I love this one, but missing part 3, pleeeeeeeeeeeeease !

[BlikeNave]

That thing is going to give me nightmares

[F1315NJ]

I nearly took this seriously, until th Sting puppet was shown

[greypilgrim26]

Ok, this is something which has seriously been hounding me forever - when i was a kid I had taped this, and after the Peter and the Wolf bit, there was a new story where the same Peter went exploring and discovered all these famous composers (chariactured versions) having a dinner party in the woods.

Anyone know where I can find this? It seemed like a continuation to the sting production, but I can't find it anywhere. Anyone??

[kolkomnogo08]

i like the duck the best hes the funniest :D but this is very nice music

[CRvids101]

i love this. i remember watching it in elementary school and its the reason i joined marching band. i always remembered the horns:) but i play clarinet now

[essamessy]

Lol me and my friend thought this was the funniest thing (We watched it in class and we were whispering random stuff about it) >.<

[chompypunk890]

I guess this version of "Peter and the Wolf" is a little freaky, but lovely too! : D

[carl0zraul]

why they always put the hunters as a trio of DUMBS!! hehe

love prokofiev =D

[DawgTycoon]

00:11 Holy shit!

00:44 michael jackson woMAN? too soon?

1:02-1:05 Nazi

1:07 WTF huge ass nose, looks like a "Gyseppi"

1:19 Child Molestation?

2:16 WTF BIG NOSE AGAIN! And creepieness

2:24 WTF HUGE EYES

[Bascoa]

@DawgTycoon you forgot Sting as the narrartor(dk how you spell that word)

[GreenVidy]

I used to watch this all the time in elementary school music class..always gave me a headache, I hated it lol. I've always been an animal lover so it was a terrifying movie for me lol.

[toleodor]

Sting's cat is one of the funniest things I've ever seen!

[MrFunxy]

the cat's tune sounds like Ba Ba

[Rwarpuddin]

That duck is drinking on a floaty tube in the pond why is this a children's show plus it scares the crap out of youth today being that scary puppet.

[sayz25]

@Rwarpuddin I watched this when I was a kid, loved it and still love it to this day. It was the first piece of "classical" music I was exposed to, and Prokofiev remains my favourite composer...oh and I've gone on to do a degree in music, thanks to programmes like this which can captivate children's attention and introduce them to the wonderful world of "classical" music. :)

[theswenpups]

1:32 epic face

[starwarsnerd94]

I remember watching this in music class back in Elementary school. Only now, years later, do I notice that the hunters are the Marx brothers!

[Omskanielar]

ahhh, where are the other two parts???

[lkkjsd]

this isn't entertaining, this scares the shit out of me

[FlashGuyMX]

If the music scared you already as a child.....

[Chilluminat]

what the fuck is that "thiiing" - white rabbit - puppet - headshakin` - eyestarrin` creature with no meaning next to the narrator?? :p

[speedy1964]

This is GREAT. Do you have the last two parts to post ?

Speedy1964

[ganondufus]

i'm scared!

[AnotherSpecialEdMom]

We NEED the next two parts. This is SUCH a fabulous presentation.

[s66223]

wow - wotchin this is like one of my earliest memories. Its an amazin sense of deja vu!! i remember that narrator at the start used to scare the shit out of me!

I cant remeber how it ends all i remeber is the hunters come and one of their guns looked like a banana. I really want to see the rest upload it please!!!

[TheFett007]

This falls squarely inside the Uncanny Valley.

[imaireina]

sorry, i was wonder.....!! i really like it so much~~ do u mind to upload part 2 and part 3 plz~~!! thank you~~!!

[Nibor7301]

Ooh, I love the duck! And the Marx hunters! I love them all really.

Except the weird dressed up not-quite-instrument-players. They always creeped me out. :S

[CheezHere]

mygod when I was like 3 years old i watched it soooo many times and each night I had nightmares, I just wanted to see that wolf, he's soooo terrifying! I can't find the other parts where can I find them??

[ilikeorangejuice555]

D:

D:

That puppet man narrator at the start is the most terrifying thing ever. D:

[hopevol2]

@ilikeorangejuice555

he looks like our president in spain :p

[SchnauzerGirl726]

@ilikeorangejuice555

Amen! He looks like something out of "Tales of the Crypt"!

[TheLadyBatman]

@ilikeorangejuice555 It looks like Sting.

[sayz25]

@TheLadyBatman It is Sting...well, it's Sting narrating, and the Spitting Image puppet represntation of Sting :)

[floratrevino]

i agree

[Muzzly1234]

@ilikeorangejuice555 Yes! But he has an epic little cat dog thing :D

[ThePOPOVICI]

@ilikeorangejuice555 HOLY @#$^%#%! Gosh that scared me too! XP

[beardedbroccoli]

@ilikeorangejuice555 HAHA I moved close to the screen, I thought I recognized this from childhood and JUMPED out of my seat when I saw that man!

[belladonna137]

@ilikeorangejuice555 kinda looks like a really creepy Sting doll!

[JoaoAlv3s]

@ilikeorangejuice555 it's Sting :)

[twisterbite]

The narrator looks like Sting, maybe this will help you understand why it's so terrifying for you. >.>

[viviane13]

Great, I thought i'll never find that video of my childhood!!! I was soooo scared when the wolf came out of his lodge!

[mefeetbecold]

Hahaha, the captions are not right. That's really funny.

[zafirobeetho]

Hi to everyone:

I would like to recognise everyone on this video but I'm not sure about all of them. I could recognise Bernstein, Mehta and Ozawa, right? who's the other conductor??

AND in the end we may see several composer such as Wagner, Beethoven and Schubert but I'm not sure about the other ones. SOMEBODY HELP ME!

great video, btw!

[toly212]

wtf

[LexyLouMissyMoo]

haha lol

i LOVE the duck

i play oboe so yea

its always drunk how cute

lol

xx

[kyusama347]

I found it!

[RedaFox1]

Ok I have three questions...

1 why the heck is there a drunk duck?! 2 what kind of a duck needs a inner tube to swim?! 3 where's part 2 and 3 ?

[LexyLouMissyMoo]

@RedaFox1

haha i LOVE DUCK!!

[LexyLouMissyMoo]

@RedaFox1

its on the related videos

[masaidan]

Is there any reason why one of the hunters looks like groucho marx? just wondering...

[morristigerson]

it'd appear as there its three of the marx brothers, not just groucho. harpo and chico are there as well.

[bonacheeta]

If you notice, they are 3 of the Marx brothers. Groucho, Harpo, and I assume Chico. :P I dunno what the reference is, outside of being bungling goofballs. lol

[ndosg15]

thats a fat kitty.

[spectrophotography]

Did that duck offer Peter liquor?

[thefaboloussob]

I'm so glad I discovered this on Youtube. Whenever I channel surf L8 @ night on Classic Arts Showcase, I always seem 2 catch the Finale or 3/3. & Sting does a brilliant job as the nar8r.

[Evelyyn70]

i loooove the strings for peters part!

[IgorekII]

Now we have two parts of the three: this one and part 3 (Finale). Who can upload the second part of this excellent film? Please!

[EmpireX1020]

I remember watching this on PBS when I was a little girl. I loved it - even though I thought some of the puppets were a tad creepy.

[jackinthia]

thats very weird...

[JejMagnificencja]

Musicvideoing. Do you have the rest of this music program and could you upload it on You Tube? I will be grateful. My best regards :)

[moonlight22322]

this is so cute!

[FinalFreek]

the duck looks a little intoxicated.

[IgorekII]

Is it possible to upload part 2 & part 3? Please! I like it very march!

[LaughingMan7171]

lolz puppets drinking xD

[Teetseremoonia]

I hate this digital look of motion in this video.

[zeke51095]

the hunters look a whole lot like the marx brothers

[Phersephoie]

that's the point :P

[FinalFreek]

i think that's the point.

[tonychopper2]

i have to say thank you soooo much for uploading this

the theme music randomly came into my head the other day and i couldnt remember what the melody was from

then i was looking through a fairytale book and saw peter and the wolf

my grandparents used to play this for me when i was little and i absolutely loved it

the only thing is that id love to see the rest of it

so please upload the next parts

[joshualiu1993]

I watched this in Music class?.

[sinbeforehalos]

GOD i love peter and the wolf.. especially this version ^_^ its been my favorite child hood tale since i was four hehe

[alexkkmkimo]

Where can i get this video ?

[Caite33]

[redwolfmoonhowl]

Yes, yes those are the Marx Brothers xD

[Rinduri]

YES! Found this version finally >_>

If only I had have had the same appreciation for music as I do now, in Kindergarten, lol.

French Horn ftw

[Zaekk]

Strings>French Horn

[peroman15]

yeah i distinctly remember being scared by the hunters in my elementary school.

[folsomgurl87]

these puppets are creepy! no wonder i was scared as a little kid

[zeke51095]

i agree to that

[erinkelly83]

That cat totally makes this video.

[livebulldog]

why no part two and part three :(
