| | Dmitri Shostakovich - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Shostakovich (left), with the poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko and conductor Kiril Kondrashin at the premiere of the composer's controversial 13th symphony. | | | Shostakovich's music shows the influence of many of the composers he most admired: Bach in his fugues and passacaglias; Beethoven in the late quartets; Mahler in the symphonies and Berg in his use of musical codes and quotations. | | | Sollertinsky introduced Shostakovich to the music of Gustav Mahler, which had a strong influence on his music from the Fourth Symphony onwards. |

| | Shostakovich's piece is of such a clarity and transparency that even non-informed listeners immediately understand what it is all about. | | | Among them was Mstislaw Rostropowitsch with whom he recorded the violin concerts of Prokoviev and Shostakovich, another milestone in his artistic development. | | | The violin playing by Maxim Vengerov was outstanding, expressive and passionate. |

| | Shostakovich: Cello Concertos No.1 and 2 - A Good-Music-Guide Review |
| | Concerts of the Congress included Shostakovich's Fifth and Tenth Symphonies and the Violin Concerto. | | | The climax of the third movement is a histrionic exaggeration of the insouciant tune from the second, and is as jarring and dramatic a 're-characterization' of an innocent-in-itself melody, as Shostakovich had accomplished with the march-tune whose gradually waxing variations interrupt the sonata-allegro design of the first movement of the 'Leningrad' Symphony. | | | At her graveside in Novodevichy Cemetery, music from Shostakovich's Eighth Symphony was played. |

| | Shostakovich |
| | Shostakovich's music is a solid record of his loathing of all aspects of totalitarianism and document his as well as others' oppression under Soviet rule. | | | Shostakovich's Fifth Symphony in D minor was first performed on 21 November 1937, by the Leningrad Philharmonic with Yevgeny Mravinsky, who was the composer's favorite conductor and premièred five other Shostakovich symphonies. | | | An example of an inaccurate interpretation of Shostakovich's music is a recording of the Fifth Symphony conducted by Leonard Bernstein with the New York Philharmonic, which plainly show the conductor's ignorance. |

| | Maxim, 67, will be serving up a full dose of his father's music in two identical performances with the Prague Symphony Orchestra next week, conducting his second and 10th symphonies. | | | Maxim likes the feel the Prague Symphony Orchestra has for his father's music. | | | Shostakovich's music has powerful resonance here, according to his son. |

| | DSCH 12 Shostakovich CD Reviews |
| | Shostakovich claimed to have based some of his work on folk songs from the 1840s collected by Feodosii Antonovich Rubtsov and there is a popular melodic strain to much of the music, though there are few actual quotes. | | | Maxim has had varying levels of success with his recordings of his father's symphonies. | | | Furthermore, were I to choose a programme to introduce a new listener to Shostakovich's music, this would be it: two of the composer's most accessible, and most consistently-rewarding works. |

| | Maxim's son, Dmitri jnr is also a recorded pianist and can be heard performing Dmitri snr's 2 piano concertos under the baton of his father on 2 Chandos CD's (CHAN 8357/8443) Daughter: Galya -apparently she is still living in Moscow and has two children. | | | This was released, in a new orchestration by Gerard McBurney and with new libretto in English with the BBC Music Magazine, April 1994. | | | Although I had read the play, and listened to Shostakovich a lot, I had never heard the Eleventh. |

| | BARBER: Violin Concerto; SHOSTAKOVICH: Violin Concerto No. 1 in A Minor - Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg, violin/London ... |
| | Shostakovich was just finishing his violin concerto in 1948 when Stalin’s cultural apparatchik made the famous speech denouncing Shostakovich, Prokofiev and others and charging them with “formalism.” Since the concerto in no way kow-towed to Soviet cultural dogma, Shostakovich just put it away until a more propitious time. | | | With Shostakovich’ son Maxim at the helm, his father’s violin concerto is assured a most appropriate interpretation. | | | Recording quality is good, but anything for solo violin sounds so much better via SACD I’m hoping there’s a hi-res version of this CD coming in the future. |

| | But if we compare Maxim Shostakovich conducting the USSR Symphony Orchestra (1972) or his 1990 version (London Symphony Orchestra) with Mstislaw Rostropovich's 1983 recording (National Symphony Orchestra), we find the latter offering far more correspondences with MacDonald's analysis than the former. | | | All that the West...has heard of Shostakovich's music so far is the noise it makes. | | | One problem is that MacDonald's detailed interpretation of Shostakovich's signs proceeds solely from analysis of the written score. |
