Music by Ukrainian Borys Lyatoshynsky and Russian Dmitri Shostakovich, composed during the Second World War, accompanies Cromwell Place’s Art in Conflict. Both composers trod the tightrope of working under the Soviet authorities while expressing their own truth. Both won the Stalin Prize (Shostakovich for the work in today’s programme), but also had their music denounced by the regime, risking arrest or worse.

Lyatoshynsky’s beguiling quartet incorporates Ukrainian and Polish folksongs and dances, reflecting his family’s heritage. Shostakovich’s quintet, composed so that he could perform as pianist with Moscow’s leading string quartets, features a hauntingly beautiful Fugue and a poetic Intermezzo among its five movements.
