  • Description

    The new medium of filmwith sound was developing at around the time Prokofiev returned to the Soviet Union, where in 1933 he composed the music for his first film,Lieutenant Kije. Prokofiev's remarkable perception of the medium's requirements was enhanced by his collaboration with Sergey Eisenstein onAlexander Nevsky.The music was of epic proportions and the resultant cantata remains one of Prokofiev's most brilliantly conceived and popular works. Leonard Slatkin's classicVOXrecordings of these works have been praised for their "powerful and compelling performances".(ClassicsToday.com) The Elite Recordings forVOXby legendary producers MarcAubort and Joanna Nickrenz are considered by audiophiles to be amongst the finest sounding examples of orchestral recordings.
