L'Amour Des 3 Oranges
Symbolic image – for the detailed description and condition, please read the Item Details below.
Sergei Prokofiev's Love for Three Oranges is a wildly imaginative fairy tale opera written for Chicago in 1921. This 1989 recording from Kent Nagano and the Lyon Opéra captures the work's anarchic spirit perfectly, with conductor and ensemble fully embracing the surreal humor and sharp orchestration. Backed by a stellar cast including baritone Gabriel Bacquier and bass Jules Bastin, the performance crackles with theatrical energy. The music darts between grotesque marches, languid love scenes, and brilliant orchestral bursts—Prokofiev's gift for memorable melody shines alongside his knack for the weird and wonderful. It's clever without being cold, accessible without losing its edge. An essential introduction to Prokofiev's operatic voice for anyone curious beyond the War Requiem or Classical Symphony.
