Soviet Music Today

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  04 February 2010

Extract

The musical public in London knows the work of a number of outstanding Soviet composers. The works of Shostakovich, Prokofiev, Khachaturian, Kabalevsky and others have been published and performed with success more than once in Great Britain. In talking with representatives of the British musical world I was able to convince myself of their lively interest in the work of these composers and in recent events in Soviet music generally. In the following pages I shall try to satisfy that interest to some extent, and to deal with some of the more important changes in Soviet music, which, as I think, have occurred during the last three or four years.
