She holds an unchallenged position as an interpreter of Shostskovich. And She is a great Alchemist of the violin embodying the musical aesthetics of Shostskovich
This lovely piece was actually my first exposure to Shostakovich, so I wrongly assumed all his pieces would be sweet and romantic like this... Boy was I wrong when I listened to his 10th symphony next.
lol; this piece was written for the film, The Gadfly," so the music had to be melodic and lyrical. You may want to hear his two Jazz Suites. I think that music will be more to your liking than his symphonic and operatic compositions.
@@hunska4481 It turns out that Shostakovich's symphonies are my favourite works by the man... with the 10th still standing as my favourite but the 13th being a close second.
@@salmonidae3667 That's very interesting how your tastes changed over the last two months. I believe that Shostakovich's symphonies are an acquired taste. I have always preferred his "lighter music."
