This fourth volume in Marin Alsop's acclaimed Prokofiev symphonic cycle features two of his most viscerally exciting works. Using material salvaged from his opera The Fiery Angel, the Third Symphony was hailed by Serge Koussevitzky at its 1929 premi\xe8re as 'the best symphony since Tchaikovsky's Sixth'. Originally commissioned as a ballet by Sergey Dyagilev but rejected as un-danceable, the Scythian Suite has become a popular orchestral showpiece, while Prokofiev retained a lifelong fondness for his dark-hued early symphonic sketch Autumn. Judging by the response to the previous volumes of this fruitful partnership with Marin Alsop and the excellent S\xe3o Paulo Symphony Orchestra this new release will have no problems in becoming a market leader. The First and Second Symphonies disc (8.573353) was an Allmusic.com 'Editor's Choice' for its 'first-rate performance', and the Fifth Symphony was described as 'an outstanding achievement' by BBC Music Magazine, which also regarded the Fourth Symphony (8.573186) as 'compelling'.
