Сергей Прокофьев. Музыка моего сердца

Sergeĭ Sergeevich Prokofʹev (1891-1953) stal simvolom muzykalʹnoĭ kulʹtury KhKh veka. Imenno ego nervnyĭ geniĭ tochnee drugikh vyrazil napri͡azhenie ėpokhi velikikh potri͡aseniĭ i ne menee velikikh otkrytiĭ. On - avtor genialʹnykh proizvedeniĭ dli͡a fortepiano i orkestra. Ego opery "Voĭna i mir", "Semen Kotko", balety "Romeo i Dzhulʹetta", "Zolushka", "Ivan Groznyĭ" otkryli novoe izmerenie v iskusstve. Ėta kniga - iskrenniĭ rasskaz o zhizni i tvorchestve. O Prokofʹeve povestvui͡ut ego velikie sovremenniki - Dmitriĭ Shostakovich, Aram Khachaturi͡an… No glavnoe - ėto stranit͡sy iz dnevnika Prokofʹeva. Tochnee vsego on rasskazal o sebe v muzyke, a v dnevnike - raskryl korni svoeĭ muzyki. Kak vosprinimal zhiteĭskie radosti i pechali vsemirno izvestnyĭ muzykant i mnogokratnyĭ stalinskiĭ laureat? Otkryv ėtu knigu, my mozhem prikosnutʹsi͡a k miru obrazov i sozvuchiĭ, kotorye oburevali kompozitora. "Mne uzhe ranʹshe prikhodila myslʹ, chto li͡udi, veri͡ashchie v bessmertie, - bessmertny, a neveri͡ashchie - smertny; te zhe, kotorye kolebli͡utsi͡a, dolzhny roditʹsi͡a eshche raz", - pisal Prokofʹev. Bessmertnyĭ iz bessmertnykh!

Sergei Sergeevich Prokofiev (1891-1953) became a symbol of the musical culture of the twentieth century. It was his nervous genius that more accurately expressed the tension of an era of great upheavals and equally great discoveries. He is the author of brilliant works for piano and orchestra. His operas "War and Peace", "Semyon Kotko", ballets "Romeo and Juliet", "Cinderella", "Ivan the Terrible" opened a new dimension in art. This book is a sincere story about life and creativity. Prokofiev is described by his great contemporaries Dmitry Shostakovich and Aram Khachaturian.… But the main thing is the pages from Prokofiev's diary. Most precisely, he talked about himself in music, and in his diary he revealed the roots of his music. How did the world-famous musician and multiple Stalin laureate perceive the joys and sorrows of life? By opening this book, we can touch the world of images and harmonies that overwhelmed the composer. "It had already occurred to me before that people who believe in immortality are immortal, and those who do not believe are mortal; those who hesitate must be born again," Prokofiev wrote. The immortal of immortals!
