Celebrating the 130th anniversary of Sergei Prokofiev (1891-1953), the present box set brings together recordings of his seven symphonies made by Andrew Litton and the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra between 2012 and 2017. Released on separate discs, the series has received acclaim from international reviewers, variously highlighting the orchestra ("Bergen Philharmonic plays gorgeously…", ClassicsToday.com), the conductor ("It is clear that Litton has a deep understanding of Prokofiev's complex, protean style …", MusicWeb-International) and the recordings themselves ("BIS's blockbuster sound…", Fanfare).
