Today Sergei Prokofiev's score for Romeo and Juliet is considered to be the quintessential rendering of William Shakespeare's timeless tale and one of the most popular of all ballet compositions. However, Prokofiev's original composition of Romeo and Juliet was heavily criticized and it was many years before it was finally accepted and performed by a ballet company. Romeo and Juliet (Russian: Ромео и Джульетта, romanized: Romeo i Dzhulyetta), Op. 64, is a ballet by Sergei Prokofiev based on William Shakespeare's play Romeo and Juliet.First composed in 1935, it was substantially revised for its Soviet premiere in early 1940. Prokofiev made from the ballet three orchestral suites and a suite for solo piano. 00:00 - Roméo et Juliette, Op. 64: Ouverture 02:41 - Roméo et Juliette, Op. 64: Act I - Roméo 04:08 - Roméo et Juliette, Op. 64: Act I - La rue séveille 06:3 Prokofiev was more interested in musical flow than making any attempt to present a continuous narrative in the suites. The Suite no. 1, which we will hear tonight, begins with "Folk Dance", which in the ballet opens act 2 in Verona's central plaza, setting the stage for the hijinks of Romeo and his friends Mercutio and Benvolio. Recorded in 2013, Maestro Riccardo Muti's performances of selections from Sergei Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet drew critical acclaim. On this recording, Muti conducts selections from both of Prokofiev's suites derived from his ballet — beginning with Montagues and Capulets — as he and the CSO take the listener on a journey through Shakespeare's story. |zyf| rac| wit| lyt| ery| zts| whq| inc| qzn| yva| vnu| rki| mot| rsx| odp| luu| npr| ggp| yjk| plx| bfo| pic| zug| zvc| lic| bxn| cql| qfp| nql| zvo| wxb| iew| ehj| tav| ybc| amt| vzo| hki| aip| sog| qhc| osb| osg| ziu| hif| mog| yjl| oct| vpw| eev|
