Another discovery from the fraught musical history of the Soviet. Vsevolod Zaderatsky's (d.1953) piano work was apparently written under great duress, on telegraph forms, while in exile on the gulag. It pre-dates the well-known Shostakovich cycle. Only recently have the first recordings of the cycle been made, and the music has received some highly appreciative reviews. Has anyone heard this? Individual bits and pieces are on YouTube.

There lives more faith in honest doubt, believe me, than in half the creeds.

They don't have the Nemtsov recording, alas.

Impressive .. especially given the circumstances of its composition. Not sure I'll be listening to it again soon though.
