6.5 X 11 Double Line.P65 Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-60315-7 - The Cambridge Companion to Shostakovich Edited by Pauline Fairclough and David Fanning Frontmatter More information The Cambridge Companion to Shostakovich As the Soviet Union’s foremost composer, Shostakovich’s status in the West has always been problematic. Regarded by some as a collaborator, and by others as a symbol of moral resistance, both he and his music met with approval and condemnation in equal measure. The demise of the Communist State has, if anything, been accompanied by a bolstering of his reputation, but critical engagement with his multi-faceted achievements has been patchy. This Companion offers a new starting point and a guide for readers who seek a fuller understanding of Shostakovich’s place in the history of music. Bringing together an international team of scholars, the book brings up-to-date research to bear on the full range of Shostakovich’s musical output, addressing scholars, students and all those interested in this complex, iconic figure. © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-60315-7 - The Cambridge Companion to Shostakovich Edited by Pauline Fairclough and David Fanning Frontmatter More information The Cambridge Companion to SHOSTAKOVICH ............................

Sometimes he tapped his fingers nervously against his cheek; occasionally he nodded Dhis head rhythmically in time with the music. In the whole of his productive career, remarked Soviet Composer Dmitry Shostakovich, he had “never heard so many of my works performed in so short a period.” Time Music: The Two Dmitrys; September 14, 1962 In 1962 Shostakovich was invited to attend the Edinburgh Festival, Scotland’s annual arts festival and Europe’s largest and most prestigious. An important precursor to this invitation had been the outstanding British premiere in 1960 of the First Cello Concerto – which to an extent had helped focus the British public’s attention on Shostakovich’s evolving repertoire. Week one of the Festival saw performances of the First, Third and Fifth String Quartets; the Cello Concerto and the song-cycle Satires with Galina Vishnevskaya and Rostropovich. 31 DSCH JOURNAL No. 37 – July 2012 Edinburgh International Festival 1962 Rostropovich and Vishnevskaya in Edinburgh Week two heralded performances of the Preludes & Fugues for Piano, arias from Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk, the Sixth, Eighth and Ninth Symphonies, the Third, Fourth, Seventh and Eighth String Quartets and Shostakovich’s orches- tration of Musorgsky’s Khovanschina. Finally in week three the Fourth, Tenth and Twelfth Symphonies were per- formed along with the Violin Concerto (No. 1), the Suite from Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk, the Three Fantastic Dances, the Cello Sonata and From Jewish Folk Poetry.

Katerina è una ragazza russa della stessa età del compositore, ventiquattro, venticinque anni (la maturazione artistica di Sostakovic fu, com’è noto, precocissima), “dotata, intelligente e superiore alla media, la quale rovina la propria vita a causa dell’opprimente posizione cui la Russia prerivoluzionaria la assoggetta”. E’ un’omicida, anzi un vero e proprio serial killer al femminile; e tuttavia Sostakovic denuncia quanta simpatia provi per lei. Nelle originarie intenzioni dell’autore, “Una Lady Macbeth del distretto di Mcensk” avrebbe inaugurato una trilogia dedicata alla donna russa, còlta nella sua essenza immutabile attraverso differenti epoche storiche.

  • The Theory of Eternal Life
    THE THEORY OF ETERNAL LIFE by RODNEY COLLIN Life is a lyre, for its tune is death. LXVI Immortal mortals and mortal immortals—one living LXVII the other's death and dead the other's life. For it is death to the breath of life to become liquid, and death LXVIII to this liquid to become solid. But from such solid comes liquid and from such liquid the breath of life. The path up and the path down is one and the same. LXI Identical the beginning and the end... Living and dead LXX are the same, and so awake and asleep, young and old: LXXVIII the former shifted become the latter, and the latter shifted the former. For time is a child playing draughts, and that child's LXXIX is the move. HERACLEITUS: On the Universe To him who, purified, would break this vicious round And breathe once more the air of heaven—greeting! There in the courts of hades wilt thou find Leftward a beckoning cypress, tall and bright, From out whose root doth flow the water of Oblivion. Approach it not: guard thou thy thirst awhile. For on the other hand—and further—wells From bottomless pool the limpid stream of Memory, Cool, full of refreshment. To its guardians cry thus: ' I am the child of earth and starry sky: Know that I too am heavenly—but parched! I perish: give then and quickly that clear draught Of ice-cold Memory!' And from that fountainhead divine Straightway they'll give thee drink; quaffing the which Thou with the other heroes eternally shalt rule.
