I have this recording and I must say it is still the best rendition of this work. This is actually taken from a ballet by Prokofiev called Trapeze. Another work, Divertimento for orchestra, was taken from Trapeze. An excellent post of a neglected masterpiece!
I just recently learned of this piece. The conductor is a genius. His recording of Schnittkes first symphony is amazing. I hear strains of both Bartok and Schoenberg. Is that possible?
Great music, vintage Prokofiev. Wonderful video, pictures!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing.
Amazing piece!..Never heard before..
So much variety and thematic material.
It's a feast for the ears.
