D. SHOSTAKOVICH (1906-1975) : Song of the Forests & other Songs Opp 81, 90, 88

Today Soviet propaganda literature tends to raise a smile, whereas the genuine feel of combined secular ‘passion’ and popular refrains still astounds, with its irresistible Russian prosodic rhythms. A tribute to the outstanding Russian artists : Yevgeni Mravinsky (1903-88), Alexander Yurlov (1927-73), Choirmaster, and the bass Ivan Petrov (1920-2003).
