It's not the opus 5. It's the opus 5/48, the only version to have been recorded, so far as I can find. I was all ready to hear what Prokofiev's opus 5 sounded like. Silly me. This is why, as David A remarked, it shows "what's to come." Because, in reality, it IS what's already there--at least what's already in place by 1929. Still, too bad that it's billed here as opus 5. Raises false expectations, for sure.
@pianoboy Shostakovich's childhood wasn't marred by the Lenin-Stalin regime. He was a pampered Wunderkind pianist/composer who apparently thought he'd be adored his whole life. But things supposedly went downhill after Stalin saw his opera Lady Mac Beth in Moscow and also supposedly wrote a stinging denunciation of it in Pravda but Stalin later sent word that this was an error. He did however recant with his Symphony # 5 and Stalin "protected " him because Shostakovich was big box office and Stalin couldn't abandon a valuable cultural property like him because he made Stalin look good. He also scored several Stalin propaganda films. The 1948 Party denunciations of composers wasn't hard on Shostakovich, but Prokofiev, who also died penniless, while Shostakovich was trotted out as a sort of musical ambassador for the Soviets. Bitter ? He was allowed to work, and his work was performed, and he had an influential teaching career.
This is indeed a rare work by Prokofiev. Shows in little phrases what's to come. A Very interesting piece.
Delightful!
Orchestra?
Conductor?
Thanks
Me fascina! Y jamás la había tocado.
Kirill Karabits and played by the Bournemout Symphony Orchestra
Started rather traditional, but by the end he couldn't help himself, I love it :)
Which orchestra is playing?
makes Zimmer, Williams, etc, just sound silly

Great composer who never dragged his problems around like Shostakovich who was not as gifted, and never -- funny.
In his own way, he did just what Shostakovich did.
@@wcsxwcsx In a way yes, but we all choose how we view our life, and Shostakovich chose negativity.
