About This Song
About "Prokofiev: Cinderella, Op. 87, Act 3, Scene 1: No. 44, Third Galop of the Prince" by André Previn
The Third Galop is pure kinetic delirium, Previn pushing the orchestra to a breathless crescendo. Brass fanfares collide with scurrying strings, and the ballroom becomes a whirlwind. Beneath the triumph, a faint hollowness—the prince galloping toward an empty throne.
