Prokofiev & Khachaturian CD

Sergei Prokofiev: Sinfonia Concertante
Aram Khachaturian: Cello Concerto

It is particularly interesting to hear these two cello concertos side by side. Despite their different musical language, both works have a strong theatrical side so typical for Prokofiev’s and also Khachaturian’s music. Both concertos are written in the last years of the Stalin era, within just six years of each other (1946 and 1952), and both are in E minor!
