Stories in Music: Peter and the Wolf

Peter's Grandfather warns him not to go into the forest, and when Peter doesn't listen and goes anyways, he gets caught. While in the forest, Peter looks over a wall and sees a wolf that is eating a duck and chasing a bird and cat. The bird and Peter work together and capture the wolf in the end.
