Alexander Nevsky Cantata and Lieutenant Kijé Suite are two orchestral works by Russian composer Sergei Prokofiev, composed in 1939 and 1934 respectively. The Alexander Nevsky Cantata, adapted from Prokofiev's film score for Sergei Eisenstein's 1938 film, is a large-scale work for mezzo-soprano, chorus, and orchestra, depicting the 13th-century Russian prince's victory over the Teutonic Knights, while the Lieutenant Kijé Suite, derived from Prokofiev's first film score, is a five-movement orchestral suite that satirically portrays the life of a fictional officer created due to a clerical error, showcasing Prokofiev's ability to blend humor with melodic appeal.
