5.0 out of 5 stars A must have., 29 Mar 2006
You will not find a better recording of this work, whatever your budget. This is simply the best album I own.
The recording is clear and the levels perfectly balanced. Do not look any further, you have found what you are looking for.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best full-length Romeo and Juliet's, 15 Dec 2002
Definitely one of the best full-length recordings of Prokofiev's beloved masterpiece around. Lorin Maazel and the Cleveland Orchestra provide playing of a raw intensity and soaring lyricism. Maazel's generally fast tempi, hard-driven rhythms and conducting full of punch give plenty of excitement in the dramatic pages of the score, while the poignant love-music has a sense of inevitability and lurking doom. The Decca recording, although dating from the pre-digital age (1973), is stunning and can compete with the very best modern discs by its dynamic range and the details in the sound picture. At this price this "Romeo and Juliet" is a bargain. Highly recommended.

(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
Sometimes music becomes something else, it becomes something so gripping that it takes over your mind and intoxicates your brain.

Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet does just that.

This is some of the most emotive music you've ever heard, and presented in excellent quality.

"Dance of the Knights" is my favourite piece, I know nothing of the technical side of music. All I know is that I love Prokofiev and that I can listen to this and be absorbed by it.

Whilst listening to this you can hear signature pieces very similar to those found in Peter and the Wolf, so after listening to this you become hungry for yet more Prokofiev!!!

5 stars and well worth it.
