Composed in 1935-36 and intended to be his artistic 'credo', Shostakovich's "Fourth Symphony" was not performed publicly until 1961. Here, the author argues that the "Fourth Symphony" was radically different from its Soviet contemporaries in terms of its structure, dramaturgy, tone and even language.
