Listen at 6pm weekdays, for Exploring Music with Bill McGlaughlin for "To the Finland Station, Part II"
The theme of my Fifth Symphony is the making of man.โ€ โ€” Dmitry Shostakovich. In 1949, Shostakovich traveled to New York for the first time to perform his Fifth Symphony on the piano for 30,000 listeners at Madison Square Garden. The shy composer made this trip and concert at the request of Joseph Stalin. The theme of the making of mankind was prevalent among many artists in the 1930s, who used their creativity to respond to the tumultuous political climate of the time, sometimes composing entire symphonies in just a matter of weeks. This week marks the second part of our two-week exploration into the hidden phrases and chords of these Russian musicians. Bill will feature composers from both sides of the Iron Curtain.
