Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Barry Wordsworth - Paddington Bear’s First Concert (2006)

Following on from the perennial successes of works like Peter and the Wolf and Carnival of the Animals, Sony BMG presents three ‘classics’ in the genre – three highly entertaining works, featuring the glorious sound of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra under the baton of one of Britain’s best loved conductors, Barry Wordsworth, that will entertain kids and parents, alike. ‘Paddington Bear’s First Concert’ stars the world’s most famous bear in an engaging story by Michael Bond, set to music by Herbert Chappell (who wrote the original theme music for the TV series) and is narrated by the UK’s favourite ‘voice’, Stephen Fry.
