  • @davehshs There is no point of apologizing for "The Gadfly". Who can say that one should not make beautiful music romanticizing adolf? But to play it in a jewish temple, well, you get the point.

  • @m4yue Even though the protagonist of "The Gadfly" is an atheist, the book is not truly anti-religious. It is more anti-hypocrisy. The man becomes an atheist because he is betrayed by religious hypocrites, a priest and a cardinal, who themselves betray the real teachings of Jesus. And as for Shostakovich's music, only a true fanatic would associate such beauty with anti-religiousness.

  • lovely..thanks

  • this is beautiful

  • 亚洲人真是厉害

  • Oh I am sure everyone who listens to this can just picture Satan trampling on the souls of man, right? Who would know this save the simple minded ?

  • Beautifully done.

  • i know, right!!!

  • "What have we to do with Thee, Thou Jesus of Nazareth!"

    So, you don't know that Gadfly was hideously anti-religious [ and especially to Catholicism].

  • How's that ironic?
