The War Symphonies: Shostakovich Against Stalin
This screening is in conjunction with the Whatcom Symphony Orchestra's presentation of Shostakovich's Ninth Symphony
The War Symphonies delves into the harrowing subject of Stalin's bloody purge on Russia and Shostakovich's musical counterattack. The Symphonies Four to Nine (1936-1945) are the composer's weapons against Stalin's rampant bloodletting, or as Shostakovich calls them, his "tombstones."
