Dmitri Shostakovich

Overview - Recordings - Scores - Books - Links


Born: September 25, 1906, St. Petersburg, Russia
Died: August 9, 1975, Moscow, Russia

Unfortunately for someone so gifted at wind writing, all Shostakovich wrote for band or wind ensemble were the Scarlatti arrangements along with some marches. Finally some of this music appeared on CD! It would have been interesting to see the reaction of the dedicatees to the march - the satire in it is quite pronounced to my ears!
