About This Song
About "Prokofiev: Cinderella, Op. 87, Act 1: No. 2, Pas de châle" by André Previn
Prokofiev's 'Pas de châle' shimmers with a nervous elegance, its nervous woodwinds darting like shadows across a ballroom floor. Previn teases out the tension between stately grace and a subtle, undercurrent of dread—Cinderella's world poised on the edge of transformation.
