Symphony No. 15 in A major, op. 141

Album by Dmitri Dmitrievich Shostakovich & London Symphony Orchestra & Mstislav Rostropovich

Symphony No. 15 in A major, Op. 141 is the fifteenth and final symphony by Dmitri Shostakovich, completed in 1971. The compact, episodic work employs varied orchestral colours, abrupt contrasts and quotations from earlier music to create a reflective, enigmatic late style that serves as a retrospective coda to Shostakovich's symphonic output.
