Amazon.com If more movie music were like Prokofiev's film scores, there wouldn't be nearly the objection to programming it that there is with the pretentious, derivative drivel typically produced by today's composers of background music. The score is given a powerful reading by Valery Gergiev, leading the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra and the Chorus of the Kirov Orchestra; this is very much a chorus work, and the Kirov finds the right blend of classical polish and folk raucousness. Mezzo-soprano Liubov Sokolova finds the essential Slavic mournfulness of Yefrosiniya's lullaby; Nikolai Putilin wields his rough-edged baritone like the axes of the Oprichniks' song. The libretto is of limited usefulness to the average Western listener, since it prints the Russian words in Cyrillic, rather than phonetically in Latin letters; and anyone who tries to cue up a section while relying on the libretto will quickly discover that the musical numbers and the CD cuts are not quite the same. --Sarah Bryan MillerASIN: B0000041NT
