With "Prokofiev" Michał Balas turns his attention to one of the most fascinating composers of the 20th century. The music of Serge Prokofiev combines expressive power, lyrical depth and dancing lightness - qualities that Balas brings to life with great musical sensitivity and technical brilliance. Central to the album is the Sinfonia concertante for cello and orchestra, op. 125, a monumental work full of dramatic tension and emotional contrasts. The programme is supplemented with the colourful Cinderella Suites Nos. 1-3 (op. 107-109), in which Prokofiev's unmistakable musical language shines between fairy-tale elegance and rhythmic energy.
Michał Balas is accompanied by the Philharmonic Orchestra of Pilsen under the direction of Chuhei Iwasaki, whose sensitive yet powerful interpretation provides the soloist with an orchestral framework.
