Symphony no. 11

Album by Dmitri Dmitrievich Shostakovich & Berliner Philharmoniker & Semyon Bychkov

Symphony No. 11 in G minor, Op. 103 is the eleventh symphony by Russian composer Dmitri Shostakovich, composed in 1957. The score features sombre, often march-like themes, expanded orchestration and episodic movements that evoke public and historical narratives, and it falls within Shostakovich's late-1950s output as a work engaging with collective memory and his evolving musical language.
First released: 1987
