    I was a violinist, and this piece is absolutely the most fun to play. The bow movements are aggressive and you can get some frustration out. It is also a bit difficult in the beginning where the brass goes hard and you are supposed to play quietly and move the bow slowly with no vibrato. It is absolutely my favorite.

    Prokofiev was a genius at musically interpreting classics. Shakespeare hit the ball out of the park with his play in verse, ROMEO AND JULIET, and then Prokofiev re-interpreted the play as a ballet with music nobody else could dream of!

    When i was in the fifth grade in the early 50s my parents bought us a record of the narration of the Siege of Troy. The section here from about 1:20 was a major part of our enjoyment of the record, and it was called The Love for Three Oranges, which Prokofiev wrote in 1921. He apparently used it again in 1935 when he wrote Romeo and Juliette. I prefer calling it The Love for Three Oranges.
