A post-rock lover’s guide to Classical Music: Russian cycles

This is the second series in the weekly program I started in 2009. It will focus on music composed by Russian musicians from the 1860s to the 1940s. Everything changed during these 80 years or so. Here are some of the works that made our world a tiny bit brighter.

You can read the posts by clicking on the individual links. Hope you enjoy them!

Part two: Dmitri Shostakovitch, Fifth Symphony

Part three: Sergei Prokofiev

Part four: Sergei Rachmaninoff, Piano concertos n.2 and n3

Part five: Dmitri Shostakovich, string quartets n.8 and n.14
