"She has a background in theater and is also a violinist," informed MSO president Marianne Hontiveros. "She has played with an orchestra in the past."

The bird will be played by the flute, the duck is played by the oboe, the cat by the clarinet, the grandfather by the bassoon, the big bad wolf by the French horn, Peter by the strings, the blast by the hunter's shotgun played by the kettle drums.

Other celebrity narrators were singer-actress Karylle Tatlonghari, former Repertory Philippines actor-turned-journalist and TV host Tim Yap, sports multi-medalist Akiko Thomson-Guevara, seasoned performer Liza Chan-Parpan and Maanne.

Since "Peter and the Wolf" is a little under 30 minutes, Ballet Philippines decided to do a classical ballet, "Little Red Riding Hood," which features the work of French conductor Camille Saint-Saens and Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg.
