Wow! This is REAL filmscore!



Prokofiev wrote this music for the Sergei Eisenstein's epic film "Alexander Nevsky". Later he compiled the music for a "Cantata" which is how we know the score today. It is ironic that Prokfiev died the same day as Stalin and would never get to know the "relaxed" artistic freedoms that Shostakovitch would later come to "enjoy".

Please get to know this fantastic music......it won't "hurt your ears"!
