Prokofjew: "Cinderella" Ballettsuite op. 87 ∙ Dima Slobodeniouk | SWR Symphonieorchester 

agreed. For me he is the most underestimated composer of the 20th century. Bach and Prokofjew are my Gods.

@@jankobelde And Prokofjew didn't drag his "suffering" around and wear a one size fits all hair shirt like Shostakovich who had to have snitched on others to stay alive, and the composer Ernst Krenek even called him " the prince of collaborators ".He was basically a spoiled enfant terrible whose career was promoted by the state, and he scored propaganda films of Stalin. I knew Virgil Thomson very well, and he said that Prokofjew suffered greatly in 1949 when the Zhadnov decree forced composers to fall into line. And let's be real. Prokofiev had imagination and a lyric gift second to none., as in his vln cto # 1. Shostakovich has been presented to the public as a THE tortured tragic 19th century arrtist of the 20th century, and people like S. Volkov have advertised him as such and thereby profited. Would we worship Mozart and Schuber if they hadn't died "tragically" young?

"2oth century" i love it

@@AndreyRubtsovRU He died in 1959. Fyi.

@@jankobelde funny enough you are incorrect.
