Cinderella Suite

Album by Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev & Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra & Leonard Slatkin

Cinderella Suite is an orchestral suite by Sergei Prokofiev, arranged from his ballet Cinderella and dating from 1945. The music blends Prokofiev's lyricism and colourful orchestration with dance-driven rhythms and a mix of Romantic and modernist harmonies, and the suite condenses the ballet's theatrical music into orchestral movements that exemplify his mature mid-1940s output during the Soviet-era phase of his career.
