P014 Symphony No. 1, Op. 25 (The Classical Symphony) - Prokofieff, S. (PDF DOWNLOAD)
£25.99
Fizzing with excitement in the outer movements, tender in the second, and mischievously classical in the third, this little Symphony perfectly suits the agility, sensitivity and sparkling humour of an orchestra of flutes. Prokofieff was a master orchestrator, and in this large scale arrangement the trickiest passages are divided up and shared between players in the same way Prokofieff does in the original work, ensuring even the Molto vivace is playable by an advanced group. Themes are sprinkled through the whole orchestra, making it a marvelously entertaining work to play and to listen to.
