7 SHOSTAKOVICH Symph No 7 Leningrad in C major Op 60 Dir Valery Gergiev Mariinsky Orchestra
Dmitri Shostakovich's Symphony No. 7 in C major, Op. 60, nicknamed the Leningrad Symphony, was begun in Leningrad, completed in the city of Samara (then known as Kuybyshev) in December 1941, and premiered in that city on March 5, 1942. At first dedicated to Lenin, it was eventually submitted in honor of the besieged city of Leningrad, where it was first played under dire circumstances on August 9, 1942, nearly a year into the siege by German forces. #shostakovich #symphony #symphony7 #op60 #paris #france #salle #pleyel #SallePleyel #modernism #avantgarde #sallepleyel #dmitryshostakovich #gergiev #mariinsky #mariinskytheatre #classicalmusic #classic #classical #concert #music #superb #beautiful #шостакович #симфония #симфония7 #дмитрийшостакович #гергиев #мариинский #мариинскийтеатр
