Sergei Prokofiev (April 23, 1891 – March 5, 1953) – Russian and Soviet composer, pianist, conductor and teacher. Prokofiev's contribution to world musical culture is colossal. Prokofiev was always on the lookout, as he said  "the original, own musical language", and enriched it with new techniques in the fields of instrumentation, melody and harmony. Prokofiev`s heritage comprises 11 operas, 7 ballets, 7 symphonies, 8 concerts, as well as many instrumental works. Among them - the works for children and fairy tales, as well as work dedicated to the works of his contemporaries and creativity of the war period.
    During the Great Patriotic War, Prokofiev directed his effrorts to write patriotic works, feeling in as a part of tragic events and worrying about the fate of the Motherland. At this time, he created a monumental opera "War and Peace" by Leo Tolstoy's novel, as well as masterpieces awarded with the Stalin Prize: Seventh and Eight Piano Sonatas of the famous "War Sonatas" series and grandiose Fifth Symphony.
 
"Embassy of Musical Mastery" is a unique project of the St. Petersburg Music House and "Rossotrudnichestvo", which takes place since 2012 and includes the creative meetings of leading Russian musicians, as well as tours of the young soloists at the Russian Science and Cultural Centers abroad.
