Listening Prokofiev (Classical Symphony)

The up tempo that song starts with brings a very warm invitation to the audience. The alteration between the low and high strings is very interesting. The phrases in the song are travel down scales in a repetitious way. It seems like the same phrase is played over and over again, however the root note changes as it moves along the in the song. The composition's string parts give the song a rich a large sound. The song doesn't have any intended silence, however there seems to be energy in every beat and movement. This can be attributed to the fact that Prokofiev wrote the piece without the help of constructing it on the piano first. Often it is hard to plan for silence in piece when you are writing out the arrangement on a score.
