Peter and the Wolf: Don't miss the sweetest video...

Our 2021 video production of Prokofiev’s beloved children’s classic musical story, Peter and the Wolf, is now available on YouTube here.

What makes this production truly, heartwarming are the children and families who tell the story. Students from Silverbrook Middle School, friends of KMS and family members of KMS players all contributed to the narration.

Enjoy, and feel free to share!
