Album Cover
Sergei Prokofiev
War and Peace Opera in Thirteen Scenes

Album 1961 on Mezhdunarodnaya Kniga label
Classical (Opera)

Premiere cast Moscow from the 1959 production Based on the novel War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy. Although Tolstoy's work is classified as a novel, the 1812 invasion of Russia by the French was based on real-life events, and some real-life people appear as characters in both the novel and the opera, e.g. Prince Mikhail Kutuzov and Napoleon Bonaparte.
