"Alsop and her players handle the great climactic moments with elan ... (the vibrant Waltz Suite) really swings, with some stylish solo playing in all sections of the orchestra."
- The Guardian
Marin Alsop directs the São Paulo Symphony Orchestra on Prokofiev's Symphony No. 6, composed in the wake of World War II, revealing the composer's dark response to war and its consequences. The symphony's ending has been described as “one of the most shattering in the repertoire." With themes both capricious and sensuous, the Waltz Suite recycles material from earlier scores to create a remarkably effective quasi-symphonic entity, rounding out this wonderful programme recorded in Brazil in April 2015.
