About "Romeo and Juliet, Op. 64 / Act II : Prokofiev: Romeo and Juliet, Op. 64 / Act II: No. 35, Romeo Decides to Avenge Mercutio" by Boston Symphony Orchestra

Romeo decides to avenge Mercutioβ€”a seismic shift from grief to fury. The orchestra coils with dark, pulsing strings, building a relentless crescendo of vengeance. Here, Prokofiev captures the exact moment innocence shatters into lethal resolve.
