Ledi Makbet Mtsenskogo uezda Shostakovich

Public

Approved

Dmitry Shostakovich wrote the opera Lady Macbeth of the McNensky District on a libretto by Alexander Preis based on the short story of the same name by Nikolai Leskov. It is one of the most important musical-dramatic works of the twentieth century, "tragedy-satire", an image of a corrupt society standing on the unestablished power of sexuality. This is embodied by Katarína, a frustrated and oppressed housewife who leaves only the dead behind. Shostakovich played this dissonant game of brutal emotionality using solo concertant instruments, choirs and interludes. The opera was initially an unprecedented success, almost 180 repetitions, but in the days of Stalin's terror the composer was condemned in the politically tendentious article Chaos instead of music, and the opera was not performed until the 1960s.
