Editorial Reviews

Capriccio is marking the 100th birthday of Dmitry Shostakovich (1906-1975) with a whole string of new releases. This 7-CD set unites the film scores of Shostakovich previously released on separate CDs. Film music formed a lifelong accompaniment to Shostakovich's career, from the silent films of the 1920s to "King Lear" in 1970. This is a fascinating excursion through half a century of Russian film music and an important contribution to history's verdict on the ever-enigmatic Dmitry Shostakovich.
