Symphony no. 5

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

Symphony No. 5 is the fifth symphony by Russian composer Sergei Prokofiev, completed in 1944 and premiered in 1945. Scored for large orchestra, it juxtaposes expansive, lyrical themes with incisive rhythmic drive and vivid orchestral colours, reflecting Prokofiev's mature neoclassical-symphonic language and representing a major wartime statement in his mid-1940s output.
