This new release is based on the music of Prokofiev’s ballet Romeo and Juliet with the purpose to give the aspiring dancers both the challenge of some unusual material and the opportunity to enrich their musical culture by getting familiar with a masterpiece that must be part of their knowledge.

The original music in this album was arranged, composed and played for a complete ballet class by Bruno Lawrence Raco.
