SOMETHING TO KNOW:
Noted Soviet violist Vadim Borisovsky arranged these selections from Prokofiev’s initially controversial but ultimately beloved ballet Romeo and Juliet.
SOMETHING TO LISTEN FOR:
The iconic “Dance of the Knights” accompanies a scene at a ball and in this arrangement double stops give the melody weight and depth.
