Chout - a savage farce - is one of Prokofiev's most unbridled, riotous orchestral pieces, crafted with mercurial inventiveness, its abrasive rhythms and brilliant colours pervaded by a sarcastic, dark humour.
At the head of the NDR Radiophilharmonie, Stanislav Kochanovsky here presents the rarely-recorded original full-length ballet.
Its companion piece, the Classical Symphony, offers a piquant counterpoint: beneath its ostensible Haydnesque elegance it exudes Prokofiev's irony and his quirky penchant for displacement.
Tracks:
Chout, op.21
Symphony no.1 in D major, op.25 'Classical'
