Romeo & Juliet: The Three Suites
Album by Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev & Bergen filharmoniske orkester & Andrew Litton
Romeo and Juliet: The Three Suites is a set of orchestral suites by Sergei Prokofiev, assembled from his ballet score between 1936 and 1946. The music combines lean, neo-classical orchestration with dramatic, ballet-derived motifs and inventive harmonic language, reflecting Prokofiev's theatrical scoring and representing his mid-20th-century practice of adapting stage works for the concert repertoire.
