Symphony No. 4 in C minor, Op. 43 is the fourth symphony by Russian composer Dmitri Shostakovich, completed in 1936. The work features vast, late-Romantic orchestration, complex polyphony and modernist dissonance that alternates between turbulent, grotesque passages and lyrical interludes, and it occupies a pivotal place in Shostakovich's career after being withdrawn prior to its planned 1936 performance amid political pressure and not receiving its first public premiere until 1961.
