What Classical Music Are You listening to Now? III

[Petrushka]

I assume the Salmanov Symphonies would be some way behind DSCH and Prokofiev in your estimation Pet and I if so I would agree,all 4 are well worth listening to though.
The 6 String Quartets are much finer works.
All IMVHO.

Once again we can see why Shostakovich was head and shoulders above everyone else in Russia. The 2nd is the only Salmanov I have on CD, though all four are on youTube should anyone wish to investigate.
