Peter and the Wolf / The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra / Babar the Elephant

~ Release by Sergey Prokofiev; Dame Edna Everage (see all versions of this release, 2 available)

Annotation

Dame Edna Everage and Barry Humphries are of course the same person, but is attributed separately on the CD.

This is because he reads Peter and the Wolf and The Young Person's Guide… in character, but reads The Story of Babar in his normal voice.
