Sergei Prokofiev, a Russian composer born in 1891, forged a distinctive, often percussive and lyrical style in classical music. He is celebrated for masterpieces like the ballets "Romeo and Juliet" and "Cinderella," the children's tale "Peter and the Wolf," and powerful piano concertos. His unique voice, blending modern harmonies with classical structure, profoundly shaped 20th-century music.
