Prokofiev's romantic streak shows up in Romeo and Juliet and his spectacular Third Piano Concerto. The Sixth Symphony reveals a tragic mood.
Underneath Prokofiev's cheeky wit, spiky sarcasm and sheer brilliance was a romantic soul. In his lyrical mood he was capable of irresistible melodies - laughing, poignant, always unique. Nowhere is this more apparent than in his soaring ballet music for Romeo and Juliet - one of the great musical interpretations of this timeless love story. The Sixth Symphony from 1947 shares some of its tragic mood. And with the Third Piano Concerto we bring you Prokofiev's calling card as a virtuoso composer-pianist. This brilliant, memorable music shows Prokofiev in all his moods, but it's the romantic Prokofiev who shines through.
