D. Shostakovich : Symphony N° 14, I.

[KhagarBalugrak]

What a dark piece. I hope Shostakovich wasn't feeling deeply depressed when he wrote this.

@KhagarBalugrak He probably was. I remember reading he'd lost function of almost all his limbs by the time he wrote this. He was very sick. Couldn't play the piano anymore.

[KhagarBalugrak]

@th3wing3dpaint3r, that's sad to know. Whatever the case, I can say he's in a much better place now.

[DonPMitchell]

Those hundred lovers are asleep forever beneath the dry earth. Andalusia has long, red-colored roads. Córdoba, green olive trees for placing a hundred crosses to remember them. Those hundred lovers are asleep forever.
