Music or muddle: Shostakovich’s 5th Symphony 1:11:58

2y ago1:11:58

1:11:58

Shostakovich had never had it worse: his latest opera, Lady Macbeth, had been panned. And not just by an ordinary critic: Joseph Stalin himself had paid a visit to the opera house. The official Soviet opinion of the work? “Muddle instead of music.” Shostakovich therefore pulled his Symphony No. 4 out of rehearsals and regrouped. He determined to wr…

038: Do we really need a conductor? 48:44

4+ y ago48:44

48:44

Here at Stand Partner HQ, we get this question a lot! And that should tell you something without even knowing the answer. Nobody asks what a pilot does, or if we really need one for our airplanes. But the conductor’s role isn’t nearly so obvious, to our audiences and even, at times, to us! Do we really need someone up front “driving the train”? Do …
