Prokofiev – Selection from Romeo and Juliet

It was amazing to be able to play a variety of pieces spanning different areas of classical music; 'This is London' was composed by 4 young artists attending the top 4 music conservatoires in London! I especially enjoyed playing Prokofiev's 'Romeo and Juliet', which included some famous and difficult extracts (including the theme from the show 'The Apprentice'!) which was incredibly fun. Furthermore, we were able to play in the Barbican theatre, which isn't an everyday experience, and having the occasion to play music and perform for people to enjoy was a pleasure!
