About This Song
About "Peter und der Wolf, Op. 67: IX. Als der Wolf merkte, dass er gefangen war" by Barbara Schöneberger
The wolf's capture is rendered in a triumphant, swirling orchestral passage. Schöneberger's narration tingles with relief and awe, Prokofiev's score a dance of victory—yet the tension lingers, for the wild is never truly tamed.
