Bloomsbury Launches Special Peter and the Wolf Mini-site
Bloomsbury, the publishing company behind Bono, Maurice Seezer and Gavin Friday's retelling of the classic Sergei Prokofiev tale Peter and the Wolf has launched a feature rich mini-site for the project that has garnered attention the world over from the U2 fans.
Now included on the Bloomsbury site is pictures of Bono creating his artwork for the book, a special journal-type entry of Bono's creative process, musical excerpts, and biographies for all involved. A portion of Bono's "journal" reads:
I remember standing with my head just below the level of the black and tobacco keys of my Granny?s piano. I could reach them but I couldn?t see them. I could hear the hammer hit the string and bone machine but I didn?t know why, after choosing one ivory, I could hear a sort of rhyme for it in my head, leading me through the din and clangour of choices to a melody. I knew then that music was a playground that for the rest of my life I would be chasing in.
The revamped version of Peter and the Wolf will benefit the Irish Hospice Foundation which aids hospice care in Ireland and abroad.
