Nov. 26 The Singer & the Song
(1:00 AT, 1:30 NT) with host Catherine Belyea
On the final Sunday of our week-long 'Shostakovich 100' Celebration, 'The Singer & the Song' features political songs and satires composed throughout the composer's career. Despite censorship and the hostile watchfulness of the oppressive Soviet regime, Shostakovich composed amazingly wry fables, 'Romances' on letters published in the satirical magazine 'Krokodil', and even a song cycle titled 'Satires: Pictures of the Past'.
