‘Symphony no. 10’ by Dmitri Shostakovich has a rawness that strikes straight at the core of the listener. It’s full of intense emotion fuelled by the composer’s experience of living under Stalin’s regime. In this episode I share insights into the piece, introduce the instruments of the brass section, and discuss how emotion is communicated in music.

This episode features the 2nd movement from ‘Symphony no. 10’ by the composer Dmitri Shostakovich. I recommend the recording by the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Vasily Petrenko.
