Label: Onyx Classics Catalog: ONYX 4139 Format: CD Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra, Kirill KarabitsComposed by: Prokofiev: Symphonies Vol.2 - Nos.1-2, Sinfonietta, Autumn Sketch Volume two of Kirill Karabits's Prokofiev symphony cycle for Onyx charts Prokofiev's development through the charming but undervalued Sinfonietta (a close cousin to the Symphony No.1, also known as the Classical) to the strident, modernistic Symphony No.2, composed in 1924. Closing this disc is the early symphonic poem Autumn Sketch, which sounds rather like a blend of Richard Strauss and Scriabin - a world away from the second symphony. Price: $23.98 |
