Description

Aside from Prokofiev s three major ballets (Romeo & Juliet, Cinderella, and Stone Flower), he also wrote four shorter ballets that are only rarely heard, especially as a whole and not in suite form. cpo s little edition dedicated to these works features performances by the Prokofiev specialist Michail Jurowski and the WDR Symphony Orchestra of Cologne. This CD brings together two dance works composed at about the same time but depicting very different subject matter: Le Pas d Acier (The Steel Step) from 1928 and L Enfant prodigue (The Prodigal Son) from 1929, with the latter work representing Prokofiev s final project with Sergei Diaghilev. The Steel Step concerns Soviet Russia, the collapse of the old, corrupt world, and the enthusiasm of the revolutionaries for industry and machines: modern times have dawned. In contrast, the score of the biblical story of the prodigal son is lyrical and intimate and radiates with tenderly shaded colors.
