The Honolulu Symphony Ohana Concert Series continues 3:30 p.m. Sunday when American Savings Bank presents comedian Frank Delima narrating "Peter and the Wolf" at the Blaisdell Concert Hall. Delima chases wolf
The Prokofiev classic comes to life as Delima - playing Peter, conductor Stuart Chafetz's assistant - tries to capture the vicious wolf that threatens both the orchestra and audience. Musicians will become actors and the concert hall will become the center of action and pursuit.
In addition, the Symphony's popular "instrument" Petting Zoo will be open one hour prior to the concert. Children and adults are invited at this time to meet the musicians and learn about the instruments they play.
Tickets are $12 and $15, available at the symphony box office and Connection outlets. Call 538-8863 for more information.
