Romeo and Juliet (Complete Ballet)

Sergei Prokofiev

Op. 64

Lorin Maazel / Cleveland Orchestra

1973 The entire thing (2 discs).

Favorite recording, never changed. This is for the entire ballet. Virtuosic, wonderfully recorded, hits all the notes in terms of pacing, sound, and playing. Can't say enough good things.

Serge Koussevitzky / Boston Symphony Orchestra

1945 Suite No. 2. Old recording, not badly recorded.

A supplement, this is just the Suite No. 2. Played with such passion and drama, and the beautiful Boston strings, that it's recommended.
