Sergei Prokofiev (23 April, 1891–March 5, 1953) was a Russian composer, pianist and conductor. As the creator of acknowledged masterpieces across numerous genres, he was one of the major composers of the 20th century. Prokofiev wrote seven completed operas, seven symphonies, eight ballets, five piano concertos, two violin concertos, a cello concerto, a symphony-concerto for cello and orchestra, and nine completed piano sonatas, many of which are widely known and heard. He also enjoyed personal and artistic support from a new generation of Russian performers, notably Sviatoslav Richter and Mstislav Rostropovich.

Gennady Rozhdestvensky (born 4 May 1931 in Moscow) is a Russian conductor. He studied conducting with his father, noted conductor and pedagogue Nikolai Anosov, at the Moscow Conservatory and piano with Lev Oborin. Rozhdestvensky is considered a versatile conductor and a highly cultured musician with a supple stick technique. With the USSR Ministry of Culture Symphony Orchestra he recorded all the symphonies of Dmitri Shostakovich, Alexander Glazunov, Anton Bruckner, Alfred Schnittke, and Arthur Honegger for the label Melodiya. He also premiered many works of other Soviet composers.

    1. I don't fully understand what you are talking about. Can you be more specific about "files do not open"?

  3. The files seem to download just fine, but none of the file-opening programs I use can open them. If I use Unarchiver, the prompt says "The contents of the file... can not be extracted." If I use XLD, the prompt says "No files to extract." I've tried several others with no success. Adfly and Linkshrink, by the way, work just fine.

    1. I use Winrar 5.50 to make these files. It might be useful.

  4. Many thanks for this bundle of Prokofiev 'rareties'. And indeed use / update to Winrar 5.5 or 5.6 (beta) and everything will work.
