Ben Kingsley Presents Peter & the Wolf, Young Persons Guide to the Orchestra, The Sorcerer's Apprentice London Symphony Orchestra, Sir Charles Mackerras SERGEI PROKOFIEV, PAUL DUKAS, BENJAMIN BRITTEN Academy award winner Ben Kingsley here narrates two of three symphonic tales for children in a disc of music to be featured in the cinema. If Britten’s Young Person’s Guide is a work for the cinema that has ended up in the concert hall, it could be said that The Sorcerer’s Apprentice has made the journey in the opposite direction. |
