Symphony-Concerto (Prokofiev)

Sergei Prokofiev's Symphony-Concerto in E minor, Op. 125 (also widely referred to as Sinfonia Concertante) is a large-scale work for cello and orchestra.

The Symphony-Concerto was premiered on 18 February 1952 by Mstislav Rostropovich, to whom the work was dedicated. Presented at that time as Prokofiev's Second Cello Concerto – following his earlier Cello Concerto, Op. 58 – it was subsequently revised and retitled. It is among Prokofiev's final completed works.
