The world premiere of a dramatisation of Pushkin's poetic novel, with music by Prokofiev
Written in 1936 for the Pushkin centenary celebrations, Prokofiev's score was withdrawn after production difficulties. A Russian edition was published in 1973 with a drastically revised dramatic format but without three apparently lost numbers. Edward Downes relocated and orchestrated these and they are included in this new adaptation for radio. English translation by SIR CHARLES JOHNSTON Adapted by IAN COTTERELL and CLIVE BENNETT
