Prokofiev actually made piano trancriptions for Romeo and Juliet ("Ten pieces from Romeo and Juliet" Op. 75).


Sorry, don't know of any MP3.

You can listen to the ten piano transcriptions here. If you click on the titles you can download a lower-quality version; the shopping cart is for if you want a higher-quality version.

Here you can download superb Andrei Gavrilov's recording (as well as some other his recordings..)

Not in the habit of disagreeing with Bernhard, but I was under the impression that this music started out as being written for piano, before he decided to use it for ballet... rather than being piano transcriptions.

I've been researching this piece and I haven't read anything about it originally being piano music. I did read somewhere that he tends to conceive of the music on the piano and then orchestrate it, rather than conceive of it orchestrally.

Well you can get 'Montagues and Capulets' from here at least - https://www.gamingforce.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=41986

This is the only piece I have listened to from the Romeo and Juliet suite, what are the others like?
When I get some free time I will listen to some more.
