When Shostakovich Studies was published in 1995, archival research
in the ex-Soviet Union was only just beginning. Since that time,
research carried out in the Shostakovich Family Archive, founded by
the composer's widow Irina Antonovna Shostakovich in 1975, and the
Glinka Museum of Musical Culture has significantly raised the level
of international Shostakovich studies. At the same time, scholarly
understanding of Soviet society and culture has developed
significantly since 1991, and this has also led to a more nuanced
appreciation of Shostakovich's public and professional identity.
Shostakovich Studies 2 reflects these changes, focusing on
documentary research, manuscript sources, film studies and musical
analysis informed by literary criticism and performance.
Contributions in this volume include chapters on Orango,
Shostakovich's diary, behind-the-scenes events following Pravda's
criticisms of Shostakovich in 1936 and a new memoir of Shostakovich
by the Soviet poet Evgeniy Dolmatovsky, as well as analytical
studies from a range of perspectives.
