Sinfonie Nr. 5

Album by Dmitri Dmitrievich Shostakovich & Konzerthausorchester Berlin & Kurt Sanderling

Sinfonie Nr. 5 is the Fifth Symphony by Dmitri Schostakowitsch, composed and premiered in 1937. The four-movement orchestral work blends classical symphonic form with stark contrasts—sombre lyricism, driving rhythms and abrupt dissonances—and is commonly interpreted as a complex response to official criticism that marked a turning point in the composer's public output.
