Dmitri Shostakovich - Shostakovich: Film Music Edition 7CD ( VINYL )
Description
Dmitri Shostakovich is best known for his symphonies and string quartets, which paint him as a very serious composer, indeed. But he was also one of the most prolific film composers of the 20th century, with 36 films for which he wrote the music and which span virtually his entire professional career. It's a fascinating panoply that shows Shostakovich from a side that sometimes gets lost when we think of him merely as tormented and dark. There is the truly unburdened humour and coy delight in quirkiness, which we assume must be "ironic" in his concert works. Still, Shostakovich never took composing lightly, and whether he wrote music for cartoons or symphonic "tombstones", the musical merits are always impeccable.
