Peter and the Wolf / Tan Dun

Experience a truly unique and unforgettable evening with Peter and the Wolf / Tan Dun, a captivating concert film that reimagines a beloved classic. Witness the Orchestre National de France, led by the visionary conductor and composer Tan Dun, in a performance that blends tradition and innovation. Bass soloist Maria Chirokoliyska brings a powerful voice to the stage, while the masterful narrator Thibault de Montalembert brings Prokofiev's iconic tale to life with vibrant storytelling. Tan Dun’s evocative concerto for double bass places the wolf—a sacred animal on the brink of extinction—center stage, presented with profound respect and musical depth. Then, the familiar story unfolds with a thrilling twist as three sinister horns paint a vivid portrait of the wolf’s shadowy form. But the magic doesn't stop there! In a stunning display of cinematic artistry, Tan Dun brings Chaussette, the beloved wolf from Kevin Costner’s *Dances with Wolves*, to life on screen, galloping alongside the orchestra in a truly breathtaking moment. Featuring selections from John Barry's *Dances with Wolves* and Tan Dun’s *Wolf Totem*, this is an evening of music, storytelling, and visual wonder—an essential experience for fans of classical music and film alike.
