In the last movement of a piece by this composer, the violins play shrill high A’s that are likened to “forced rejoicing” by (10[1])the book Testimony. This composer’s tumultuous eighth string quartet (10[1])may have been written as a suicide note (10[1])and was dedicated to the “victims of fascism (10[1])and the war.” (10[1])The D·S·C·H motif represents this composer, whose fifth symphony was written as a “creative response to justified criticism” from the newspaper Pravda. This composer, who was denounced (10[2])for his opera Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District, used an “invasion theme” in his seventh symphony to depict a Nazi siege. For 10 points, name this Soviet composer of the Leningrad Symphony. ■END■ (10[1])
