Romeo and Juliet

Album by Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev & Orchestra of the Mariinsky Theatre & Valery Gergiev

Romeo and Juliet is a ballet score by Russian composer Sergei Prokofiev, composed in 1935–36. The work combines lyrical melodies, colourful orchestration and dramatic rhythms within a neoclassical and modernist idiom, and it occupies a central place in Prokofiev's mid-1930s output as he consolidated his approach to large-scale ballet writing.
First released: 13th March 2001
