About This Song

About "Prokofiev: Cinderella, Op. 87, Act 2: No. 27, Dance of the Prince's Four Companions" by André Previn

Four companions dance in lockstep, their theme a knot of interlocking woodwinds and strings. Prokofiev's counterpoint sparkles with camaraderie, yet a fleeting minor-key shadow suggests the fragility of courtly bonds—a fleeting, brittle joy.
