Symphony No 1 in D major "Classical", Op 25

Genre: Symphony Key: D major Duration: 15 minutes (approximate)   1.   Allegro   2.   Larghetto   3.   Gavotte: Non troppo allegro   4.   Finale: Molto vivace   Composed: 1916-1917 Premiere: 21-Apr-1918, Petrograd. Former Court Orchestra conducted by Sergei Prokofiev.. Dedication: Dedicated to Boris Asafiev. Orchestration: 2 flutes, 2 oboes, 2 clarinets, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, timpani, and strings.   Prokofiev, Symphony No. 5 & No. 1 "Classical" / Dutoit Conductor: Charles Dutoit Orchestra/Ensemble: Montreal Symphony Orchestra Catalog Num: London/Decca 4218132 Modelled after the works of Joseph Haydn, this symphony requires, above all, charm and elegance, coupled with vigour and rhythmic lilt. This is exactly what the Canadian players under Dutoit give us, and one gets the impression that they are truly enjoying every minute of the music. The second movement is ravishing in its beauty and elegant phrasing; the minuet has fine poise, and the opening movement and the finale are full of high-spirits and vitality. Dutoit gets precise, brilliant and beautiful playing from his orchestra, and with top-drawer Decca sound to match, this is hard to beat. The 5th Symphony is also excellent.     [Lionel Choi] ( This review also appears at The Prokofiev Collected Works website. ) Prokofiev: Symphonies 1 & 7, etc / Rozhdestvensky, et al Conductor: Gennadi Rozhdestvensky Orchestra/Ensemble: USSR Radio/TV Large Symphony Orchestra, USSR Ministry of Culture State Symphony Orchestra Catalog Num: Consonance 815007 I must preface this recommendation by stating that I have only heard the recordings of Rozhdestvensky, von Karajan, Koussevitsky, Kuchar, and Previn for this Symphony (in addition to numerous live performances.) However, I can unequivocally recommend Rozhdestvensky's masterful account from 1966. In spite of its classical form (i.e. Allegro, Larghetto, Gavotte, Finale) and Haydn inspiration, the Classical Symphony allows the most room for alternate interpretation by conductors. In fact, there is nothing resembling a traditional approach to this symphony. Rozhdestvenky best captures Prokofiev's youthful spirit and original intent -- to write his first symphony as if Haydn continued to live "into our time." Rozhdestvensky is brisk in the first movement, but unlike Koussevitsky, who seems only to be rushing, Rozhdestvensky captures that charateristic Prokofievian irony and humor with clear articulation and crisp staccatos. He is even better in the the Finale . Von Karajan's account on Deutsche Grammophon is also highly recommended if for no other reason than to witness the only encounter between the great classicist and Prokofiev. Kuchar's slow, modern approach is the most daring, but for me misses the youth and vivaciousness of the work.     [Sugi Sorensen] Prokofiev: Classical Symphony; Bizet, Britten / Orpheus CO Conductor: None Orchestra/Ensemble: Orpheus Chamber Orchestra Catalog Num: Deutsche Grammophon 23624 The Orpheus Chamber Orchestra manage amazingly well without a conductor, and they give us a recording full of charm and high spirits. This is one account for those festive occasions, though the slow movements are not quite as ravishing as with others like Marriner, Previn and Dutoit. Excellent digital recording, though a little too steely for the violins.     [Lionel Choi] ( This review also appears at The Prokofiev Collected Works website. )   Prokofiev, Symphony No. 5 & No. 1 "Classical" / Dutoit Composer(s): Sergei Prokofiev Conductor: Charles Dutoit Orchestra/Ensemble: Montreal Symphony Orchestra Catalog Num: London/Decca 4218132 Prokofiev: Symphony No. 1 "Classical" / Symphony No. 3 / Muti, Philadelphia Orchestra Composer(s): Sergei Prokofiev Conductor: Riccardo Muti Orchestra/Ensemble: Philadelphia Orchestra Catalog Num: Philips 4329922 Release Date: 1992 Prokofiev: Symphony no 1, Romeo & Juliet, Piano Concerto,etc Composer(s): Sergei Prokofiev Artist(s): Martha Argerich (piano), Sviatoslav Richter (piano), Schlomo Mintz (violin) Conductor: Claudio Abbado, Mstislav Rostropovich, et al.
