Yes, the gong! A welcome return.

I have the Jarvi War and Peace disc, with the Philharmonia, and it's terrific, all the good tunes from an impossibily long opera, impeccably assembled by Christopher Palmer

Since you mentioned it, the whole Sergei & Lina Prokofiev saga is quite interesting. Despite him ditching her for a younger woman, she evidently never held much of a grudge against Sergei. More forgiving than most, I'd say. In a form of poetic justice, she outlived both him and his second wife by many years. Another case of a talented composer who wasn't a particularly nice guy.
