    this is an early work from Shostakovich composed in 1934. Rostropowitsch was born 1927, so it seems rather unlikely that Shostakovich wrote this for him ;) He did dedicate his two cello concertos to Rostropowitsch though.

    Not just a concerto, actually he wrote two concertos for him: Op. 107 and 126.
