"The fiery angel" by Prokofiev - horror and grotesque

€ 20,00

The modern age liked very much to explore the darkest and dirtiest sides of the human psyche, very often indulging in the creepy.

Sergej Prokofiev is not primarily famous as an opera composer, and it might not come as a surprise that his major work in this genre was never represented during his lifetime: „The firey angel“, a work of huge hallucinated power he loved so dearly, that later converted into a symphony to at least give it a chance to be performed.

You will not find a more strinkingly horror-themed masterpiece out there. We will deep dive into this unique and nightmarish wonder.
