Maintained by Sugi Sorensen, this Web site is dedicated to the life and work of Sergi Prokofiev, one of the most accomplished composers and pianists of the 20th century. New visitors to the site will want to take a look at the detailed biography of Prokofiev provided here, along with a timeline that highlights some key moments in his life. The site also features a complete list of his works by genre, along with pertinent details (such as instrumentation, length of work, and so on) and recordings recommended by Sorensen and other contributors. The site also has a concert list that notes when upcoming performances of works by Prokofiev will be taking place, as well as sketches of "Prokofievians" such as Jascha Heifetz, Neeme Jarvi, and Andre Previn. Perhaps one of the best features on the site is the interviews, which include conversations with Sviatoslav Prokofiev (his oldest son) and Harlow Robinson, a professor who has written several biographical works about Prokofiev.
