Prokofiev’s melodies often have a singing quality that – allied to their harmonic tartness and rhythmic bite – makes them ideally suited to the violin, and so it is hardly surprising that violinists have raided the rest of his output to make more of those tunes their own. This recording presents 37 such transcriptions, drawn from his music for the piano and the stage.
