One of the numbest pieces around. The way he wrote this symphony truly depicts the year 1905 perfectly. from the protests to the emotions...Possibly one of the greatest symphonies about the hardships of Russia.

11th symphony is to me is like an old sailor who, time after retiring, discovers the sea is inside him by observing a ship docking for the first time after a long time away from the coast. Only this time is us (Human race) discovering the whole universe is inside each one of us by looking at the earth from a distance. I consider this music one of the most powerful "initiation" tools available to mankind. Being part of it playing an instrument in a orquestra must be a powerful experience as well.

@alucard624 I love all of Shostakovich's music but the 11th is my favorite of his. I think one reason is that it does have that sort of sci-fi sound to it.

I have loved this piece ever since I first heard on Carl Sagan's Cosmos. Very eerie and yet subtle in so many ways. It worked perfectly in the series as an exploration of space theme.

@rumbler227 It almost does sound like something you would hear in relation to Dune. Good call.
