P5286Moscow: Sovetskii kompozitor 1960. Quarto 29.2 × 21.8 cm. Original embossed cloth boards; 409 4 pp. Very good. Second edition first published in 1944. Considered one of the happiest and brightest compositions of Sergei Prokofiev this comic opera based on the work of the Irish playwright Richard Sheridan was completed in 1940 just prior to WWII. The war interfered with the first planned production at the Bolshoi Theater and the opera opened only in 1946 at the Kirov Theater Mariinsky Theater in Leningrad. Prokofiev wrote the score of the opera but collaborated with the young librettist Mira Mendelson 1915-1968 on the verse sections. Mendelson who would later become his second wife also wrote the libretto for his subsequent opera "War and Peace."<br /> <br /> Sergei Prokofiev 1891-1953 is considered one of the greatest composers of the twentieth century. An early talent and a reputed rebel of classical music in his creative life he composed eight ballets seven operas seven symphonies nine piano sonatas and much more. In 1918 following the two Russian revolutions Prokofiev left Russia for the United States subsequently living in France and Germany before re-settling in the Soviet Union in 1936. Finding himself in Soviet Russia in the darkest of times Prokofiev continued to lead a productive creative life even as he was "encouraged" to write patriotic pieces such as his 1939 "Zdravitsa" Cheers to celebrate Joseph Stalin's sixtieth birthday. Prokofiev also had the misfortune of dying on the same day as the great leader on March 3 1953 with his death going virtually unnoticed by the Soviet press and the public.

PJH47797Bloomsbury 2003. Mint in publishers box still shrink wrapped. 1st edition 1st issue. When Prokoviev premiered "Peter and the Wolf" in 1936 he can scarcely have foreseen quite how successful his playful classic would become or how consistently it would delight children of all ages for years to come. Now in a remarkable publishing venture Bono and his childhood friend Gavin Friday of the Virgin Prunes have collaborated to produce an irresistible and enchanting version of the classic story in book form and enhanced CD. The beautifully produced hardback story book will contain 64 pages of Bono's original paintings - with help from his daughters Jordan and Eve - to illustrate the story. And the enhanced CD gives a totally fresh funny and original rendition of the classic musical store narrated in a sly and hilarious reading by Gavin Friday. Royalties from the project will be donated to the Irish Hospice Foundation - Bono's heart is especially close to this cause after the death of his father last year.
