Sau Paulo So/Alsop - Sergey Prokofiev: Complete Symphonies

Sergey Prokofiev�s seven symphonies are acknowledged as one of the major cycles of the 20th century, and these recordings with Marin Alsop and the S�o Paulo Symphony Orchestra have received widespread critical acclaim. From the crisp vitality of the youthful �Classical� Symphony to the viscerally exciting Third, the Fifth Symphony which for Prokofiev represented �the grandeur of the human spirit�, and the deeply moving and heartfelt Sixth Symphony, this is an unforgettable collection crowned by the bitter-sweet Seventh Symphony, the composer�s final significant work.
