5/18, 3:30PM, The Seventh Symphony of Dmitri Shostakovich: A Powerful Story of Hope In Tempestuous Times, Livestreamed, and in person at the Performing Arts Building, Brewster – Free! National Book Award-winning author M. T. Anderson will tell the story of how Soviet composer Dmitri Shostakovich, trapped inside the city of Leningrad during the brutal siege by the Germans in World War II, wrote his Seventh Symphony (“Leningrad”) as an act of defiance while he was serving as a roof-top fireman watching for incendiary bombs. Incredibly, it was performed by a starving orchestra within the city — and then was smuggled out via the Middle East to be performed in the United States to promote the war effort. Shostakovich’s story is not only an inspiring tale of the power of music — it’s also an important example of how hope can transform spirits and almost miraculously save lives in tempestuous times.
