Shostakovich and His World by Laurel E Fay
Dmitri Shostakovich (1906 - 1975) has a reputation as one of the leading composers of the twentieth century. This work expands the traditional purview of Shostakovich's world, exploring the composer's creativity and art in terms of the expectations - historical, cultural, and political - that forged them.
