Carlo Gozzi tale writer, the love for three oranges (L'amore delle tre melarance, 1761) in the spirit of the Italian Commedia dell'arte, loved saying: "remember that if not hits in exaggerated parody, it will never reach a positive goals!".

Before 1918, the lengthy touring across America, a 27-year-old Sergey Prokofiev has grasped with itself theatrical magazine published by Vsevolod Meyerhold, who with a group of leaders of the new Russian Theatre. The magazine was called just like the famous tale-parody ("f?âba") by Carlo Gozzi, the love for three oranges. Freestyle stage version of it was published in the first issue of the magazine. Vsevolod Meyerhold, together with Vladimir Solovyev, Vogakom and Constantine have revisited the tale by Carlo Gozzi in the spirit of a theater. The play enticed by the young composer "mix of fairy tales, jokes and satire, and, most importantly, its theatricality," so when the Board of the Chicago Opera has decided to order the "skifu" unconquerable new work, Prokofiev remembered on the Meyerhold write with this story ostrosovremennuû Opera which blew up scenic stamps and canons, and set to work.

Bryzžu?aâ fun of Opera was established as soon as possible, and by the fall of 1919, the score was ready.

«Easy» Opera-Merry, as Sam called her Prokofiev, and inventive, witty has colourful footage in parody form his own impression of the theatre of the pre-revolutionary Russia. A bold experiment on genre, consisted of a grotesque and poignant lyrics, however, did not lead to his destruction, and opened new possibilities for the old Italian Opera-buffa. The primary effect of the Love for three oranges is accompanied by and is interrupted by concurrent Prolog-cranks: characters, comedians and tragedians is constantly interfering in events, comment on them, help the heroes in distress. The introduction of these characters is connected with the theatrical nature of design: characteristic for its time debating how to be art – mindlessly happy, tragic or lyric, is the lead and the main action, and the media commenting on his "audience". Well, the plot, unfolding around the Prince, vlûbivšegosâ ipohondri?eskogo to utterly destroy witches Veil Morgans in three Orange, asserts as a fairy tale, the victory of good over evil, of love over witchcraft.

Premiere of "Oranges" was held on December 30, 1921, in Chicago. He conducted Opera, was written in French. The success was huge. February 18, 1926 Goda "Oranges" was first heard in English – in the Leningrad academic Opera and Ballet (Mariinsky). Opera staged apprentice Meyerhold Sergey Radlov; the composer himself, who was present at the premiere, found him setting better.

Opera the love for three oranges – a wonderful mixture of Commedia dell'Arte Theatre, in the theatre, farce, satire and tales. This is one of the most lively, vibrant and cheerful operas of the 20th century, full of imagination, ingenuity, sharp rhythms and contrasts, combining the grotesque and lyrics, reality and fairytale. "Tried to establish who I am laughing: the audience, the Gozzi, the operatic form or do not know how to laugh. Found in the "Oranges" and snicker, and challenge, and grotesque, but I just wrote a hilarious spectacle, "recalled the composer.
