Product Description

Prokofievs Troika is one of the most charming and instantly recognizable pieces from his Lieutenant Kijé Suite, composed in 1933 for the Soviet film of the same name. A troika refers to a traditional Russian sleigh drawn by three horses, and Prokofiev captures the brisk, wintry motion of this ride with sparkling orchestration and a lilting, sleigh bell-accompanied rhythm.

The music evokes a vivid sense of snowy landscapes and cheerful momentum, blending lyricism with playfulness. The main melody, first heard in the strings and glockenspiel, dances along with effortless grace, while the sleigh bells create an unmistakable image of a winter journey through the Russian countryside.

Though written as film music, Troika stands alone as a masterful piece of programmatic writinglight, whimsical, and tinged with Prokofievs signature wit. It remains a favorite in both concert halls and holiday playlists, a testament to its enduring charm and vivid imagery.

This arrangement for concert band is ideal for any festive programmes and concerts. Download includes a complete score and set of parts.
