Symphony no. 5 / Ode to the End of the War
Album by Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev & Российский национальный оркестр & Vladimir Mikhailovich Jurowski
Symphony No. 5 is the fifth symphony by Russian composer Sergei Prokofiev, completed in 1944 and premiered in 1945. The work is a large-scale orchestral symphony that combines sweeping Romantic gestures with modernist harmonic and rhythmic elements, featuring dense orchestration and stark contrasts of mood, and it represents a major statement in Prokofiev's wartime output that consolidates aspects of his late compositional style.
