cubanmiamiboy Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Last night the Mariinsky Symphony Orchestra was in town, doing some beautiful stuff. From Prokofiev they played two ballet scores: "Cinderella" and "Pas d'Acier". The public was more receptive to the fairy tale music than the other one, which i totally enjoyed tremendously. I was laughing inside while looking at some faces in the audience, many of them in total disapproval of the sound...ha! But anyway, personally it did it big time for me.It was a marvelous performance, and these Russian musicians are certainly playing up to their finest tune. Bravo! P.S- Can somebody tell me more about "Pas d'Acier"...? (What a fascinating score...!) Link to comment
