Geniuses S01E02 · Sergey Prokofiev

Overview

"The first part of his 2nd Concerto, Scherzo, Prokofiev called "Running from the bogeyman". In fact, the whole life of a composer is a run from a bogeyman. In 1917,he went abroad. Unfortunately, Prokofiev could not organize his creative destiny abroad: he was disgusted with publishers, managers, impresarios, and businessmen from the world of music. Returning to the USSR in the late 20s, he was by no means full of hope and happiness. He had no illusions about the revolution and all that followed. But even in the West, it was getting harder to breathe, and the cloud of fascism was gathering. From one monster he ran to another."..
