Shostakovich's Symphony No. 14, inspired by the poetry of Lorca and other literary giants, exemplifies his ability to fuse music with profound literary themes. Throughout his life, the composer faced significant health challenges, including tuberculosis and heart problems, yet he continued to create groundbreaking works. His Symphony No. 7, awarded the Stalin Prize in 1943, marked a pivotal moment in his career, showcasing his resilience and artistic brilliance. Later, in 1972, a diagnosis of a malignant condition further influenced his late works, adding layers of depth and introspection. Notable among his compositions is The Bolt (1931), written for ballet; it demonstrates his innovative style through complex structures and emotional intensity—elements that continue to inspire musicians and scholars today. Join us on January 7, 2026 to experience the enduring power of Shostakovich’s music live in New York.
