Product Description:

Since the time of his death, Dmitri Schostakovich's place in the pantheon of 20th century composers has become more commanding and more celebrated, while his musical legacy, with all its wonderfully varied richness, is performed with increasing frequency throughout the world. This seemingly endless surge of interest can be attributed , at least in part, to 'Testimony'. The powerful memoirs the ailing composer dictated to the young Russian musicologist Solomon Volkov.
