One of my favorite pieces of all time; the transcprition for piano (by Prokofiev himself) of Romeo & Juliet ballet. The Montaigu and Capulets are dancing, while Romeo and Juliet fall in love.
W.Shakespeare may have been young when he wrote the play but he already knew all about pride, fate, hate and love.
Serguei Prokofiev composed his ballet Romeo and Juliet in 1935 after his return to the Soviet Russia. Later he reduced selected music from the ballet as "Romeo and Juliet: Ten Pieces for piano op 75"
