This double identity can be heard even in his earliest works, mostly for piano, written before 1914, and was sealed with his ‘Classical’ Symphony in 1917.\r\n\r\nThe subtitle is the composer’s own. Indeed, Prokofiev stated, ‘I wanted to write a symphony that Haydn or Mozart would have written had they lived in the twentieth century.’ In this way, he codified not only his own image, but also that of neoclassicism itself (the prevailing style during the interwar years) as ‘classical music with a few wrong notes here and there’.\r\n\r\nHis French contemporary Florent Schmitt called the work ‘an unpublished Haydn’, a characterization which is in part justified. In terms of their length, form, instrumentation and harmony, the first and last movements resemble a classical sonata.\r\n\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eNetherlands Radio Philharmonic Orchestra\u003c\/strong\u003e\r\n\u003cstrong\u003eJames Gaffigan, Conductor\u003c\/strong\u003e","brand":"Challenge Classics","offers":[{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56739122151748,"sku":"CC72732-17","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739122184516,"sku":"CC72732-6","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":56739122217284,"sku":"CC72732-7","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 192 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56739122250052,"sku":"CC72732-9","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"FLAC 96 kHz \/ 5ch Surround","offer_id":56739122282820,"sku":"CC72732-10","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo","offer_id":57310033281348,"sku":"CC72732-14","price":23.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"DSD 64 \/ 2ch Stereo \u0026 5ch Surround","offer_id":57335988224324,"sku":"CC72732S1417","price":28.49,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/7900\/2436\/files\/CC72732-No-Logo.jpg?v=1790491520","url":"https:\/\/www.nativedsd.com\/products\/cc72732-prokofiev-symphonies-nos-1-and-5","provider":"NativeDSD Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
