UPPER WEST SIDE, Manhattan (WABC) — Eyewitness News anchor Bill Ritter took his talents out of the newsroom to narrate a special performance of “Peter and the Wolf.”
The performance with Riverside Symphony took place Saturday on the Upper West Side.
In addition to featuring Bill Ritter, the event also featured Romanian-French pianist Alexandra Joan.
And while Bill admitted he was a little nervous to step out of his comfort zone, he says he was really excited.
The show is designed for audience members ages 8 and up. The composition has been a children’s favorite for generations with different instruments representing the characters in the story.
