A magnificent symphonic poem depicting the Russian Revolution.
A powerful and tense sound that depicts a turbulent era.
The performance by Mravinsky and the Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra has been praised as the definitive work for its profound composition and precise expression. The roar of the copper pipes and the swell of the strings vividly portray the passion and sorrow of the revolution, and it evokes Shostakovich's spirit of pursuing artistic truth even under political constraints.
