Symphonies 1 & 2 / Sinfonietta

Album by Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev & Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra & Kirill Karabits

Symphonies 1 & 2 / Sinfonietta is an album by the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra under conductor Kirill Karabits, released in 2014. The recording juxtaposes Prokofiev's light-hearted 'Classical' Symphony No. 1 and the avant-garde Symphony No. 2, described by the composer as 'as hard as iron and steel', alongside the rarely performed Sinfonietta and the early symphonic poem 'Autumnal Sketch'.
First released: 3rd November 2014
