From LSO’s Chronicle
Russian 20th-century music is inseparable from history. As film composers, Shostakovich and Prokofiev both got used to the idea of providing accompaniments to images of great moments from their country’s past. But few have chronicled their own times as relentlessly as Shostakovich.
Variously fêted and reviled by the Soviet authorities, and constantly treading a fine line between triumph and disaster – sometimes even between life and death – his desire to compose never wavered, and thus it is that the late symphonies featured in this series offer an image of the postwar decades in music of unfailingly intense expression, from the ‘optimistic tragedy’ of the Tenth to the descriptive power of the Eleventh, and the dark contemplations of the Fourteenth to the quirky irony of the Fifteenth. Yet out of necessity Shostakovich’s is also an art rich in ambiguity, its surface messages often seemingly undermined by steely irony and double meaning.
Three decades after his death these great works still have the power both to fascinate and to reach deep into our hearts and minds.
From Wikipedia: Shostakovich’s page:
After a period influenced by Prokofiev and Stravinsky (Symphony No. 1), Shostakovich switched to modernism (Symphony No. 2 and The Nose) before developing a hybrid of styles with Lady Macbeth and the state-suppressed Fourth Symphony. This hybrid style ranged from the neo-classical (with Stravinskian influences) to the post-romantic music (with Mahlerian influences). His tonality involved much use of modality and some astringent neo-classical harmonies à la Hindemith and Prokofiev. His music frequently includes sharp contrasts and elements of the grotesque.
