Η Πρώτη Συμφωνία του Sergei Prokofiev (“Κλασική”) είναι γραμμένη από τον συνθέτη σε ηλικία 26 χρόνων, για ορχήστρα της κλασικής περιόδου, στο συμφωνικό μοντέλο του Joseph Haydn. Περιλαμβάνει βεβαίως περάσματα που στα τέλη του 18ου αι. θα ήταν αδιανόητα. Ο Lorin Maazel διευθύνει την Orchestre Nationale De France.

Sergei Prokofiev wrote his First Symphony (“Classical”) at the age of 26. It is scored for classically-sized orchestra and modelled on Joseph Haydn’s symphonic style. It contains of course passages unimaginable for the late 18th century. The Orchestre Nationale De France is conducted by Lorin Maazel.

* For my friends who didn’t know, or first timers here, Oannes [aka Socratis Papahatzis] is my husband, partner in life and music and the one with my undying admiration. Together we have a band MK-O [the music of Marina Kanavaki & Oannes]. So, it’s my pleasure to share with you his [and sometimes mine] musical selections. • Do visit his site. He has my highest recommendation!
