A rare opportunity to hear Prokofiev’s generously
melodic fairy-tale ballet score in its full glory. The
composer began work on Cinderella in the spring
of 1940 but, with the onset of war, his compositional
priorities changed and he did not tackle the
orchestration for another four years. It proved to
be one of the music’s most original features, evoking
an alluringly strange, ‘silvery’ sound-world.
