More details
Making music became a matter of life and death for Soviet composers when Joseph Stalin's Great Terror campaign began a lethal crackdown on artistic dissent. Despite being denounced by the authorities and fearing for his life, Dmitri Shostakovich penned his Fifth Symphony — a work of artistic heroism in which the composer reacts to the violence, oppression, and cruelty of his time.
