Seventh Symphony Shostakovich. Leningradskaya

70 years ago, August 9, 1942, the seventh symphony to Major Dmitry Shostakovich, who received the name "Leningrad" was performed in the Blood Leningrad.

"I watched a favorite city with pain and pride. And he stood, laid fires, hardened in battles, who had experienced the deep suffering of the fighter, and was even more beautiful in his severe greatness. As it was not to love this city, erected by Peter, not to tell everything The world about his glory, about the courage of his defenders ... My weapon was music "- wrote later the composer.

In May 1942, the score was delivered to the deposited city by the aircraft. At a concert in the Leningrad Philharmonic Symphony No. 7, a large Symphony Orchestra of the Leningrad Radiocomitte was performed under the control of the conductor Charles Eliasberg. Some of the orchestrants died of hunger, and they were replaced by musicians withdrawn from the front.

"The circumstances under which the seventh were created were announced around the world: the first three parts were written in about a month in Leningrad, under the fire of Germans who got to this city in September 1941. Symphony, thus, was considered a direct reflection of the events of the first Days of the war. No one took into account the Maneru of the composer's work. Shostakovich wrote very quickly, but only after the music was fully drawn up in his mind. The tragic seventh was a reflection of pre-war fate and composer and Leningrad. "

From the book "Certificate

"The first students did not associate the famous" march "from the first part of the seventh with the German invasion, this is the result of later propaganda. The conductor Evgeny Mravinsky, a friend of the composer of those years (he is dedicated to the eighth symphony), recalled that he heard the march from the seventh on the radio in March 1942, he thought that the composer created a comprehensive picture of nonsense and stupid vulgarity.

The popularity of episode Marsha hid an obvious fact that the first part is in reality, and the work in general is full of robes in the style of Requiem. Shostakovich, if any opportunity, emphasized that the intonation of requiem occupies a central place in this music. But the words of the composer were intentionally ignored. Pre-war years, in reality, full hunger, fear and mass killings of innocent people during the Stalin's terror period, now painted in official propaganda as a bright and carefree idyll. So why not imagine the symphony of the "symbol of struggle" with the Germans? "

The inhabitants of the Blocade Leningrad overlook the bomb shelter after the passion of anxiety

Shocked by music Shostakovich, Alexey Nikolaevich Tolstoy So wrote about this work:

"... The seventh symphony is dedicated to the celebration of the human in man.<…>

The seventh symphony arose from the conscience of the Russian people who took the death fighting with black forces without hesitation. Written in Leningrad, she rose to the size of great global art, understandable on all latitudes and meridians, because she tells the truth about a person in the unprecedented godin of his disasters and tests. Symphony is transparent in its tremendous complexity, she and Surov, and on male lyrics, and all flies to the future, revealing abroad of a person's victory over the beast.<…>

The theme of the war arises alternately and first it looks like some simple and crazy dance, on the exposure of scholars of rats under the shouted rat. As an amplifying wind, this topic begins to break the orchestra, she masters them, grows, grow up. Roughs with their iron rats rises from the hill ... This is moving war. She triumphs in the pilobs and drums, a scream of pain and despair respond to violin. And to you, who was an oak railing with fingers, it seems: is it really that everything is already afraid and confused? In the orchestra - confusion, chaos.<…>

No, man is stronger than the elements. String tools begin to fight. Harmony of violins and human voices are more powerful than the screamer of donkey leather stretched on the drums. Desperate heartbeat you help harmony celebration. And the violins harmonize the chaos of war, make it make her cave roar.

The damned rat is no longer, it is carried out in a black abyss of time. The bows are lowered, - in violinists, in many, in the eyes of tears. Only thoughtful and stern, - after so many losses and disasters, is the human voice of the Fagota. There is no return to a bubboy happy. Before wounded in the suffering of a person's gaze - the path passed, where he is looking for justification of life. "

The concert in the blockade Leningrad became a kind of symbol of resistance of the city and its inhabitants, but the music itself inspired everyone who heard her. Here's how I wrote poetessabout one of the first performances of the work of Shostakovich:

"And on March 29, 1942, the combined orchestra of the Bolshoi Theater and All-Union Radiocomitus performed the seventh symphony, which the composer dedicated to Leningrad, called Leningrad.

In the column hall of the houses of the unions, the world's famous pilots, writers, Stakhanovsky came. There was a lot of front-line - from the Western Front, from the South, from the North, - they came to Moscow on business, for several days, so that tomorrow to go on the battlefield tomorrow, and yet the time to come to listen to the seventh - Leningrad - Symphony. They endowed all their orders complained by the republic, and everyone was in the best dresses, festive, beautiful, elegant. And in the column hall was very warm, everything was without a coat, electricity was burning, and even smelled of spirits.

Leningrad in the days of blockade during the Great Patriotic War. Air defense fighters Early in the morning on one of the city streets

The first sounds of the seventh symphony are chisty and ispoles. They are listening to greedily and surprised - so like we once lived, before the war, as we were happy, there were, how free, how many spacious and silence were around. This wise, sweet music of the world I want to listen without end. But suddenly, dry crackling is very quiet, dry drum fraction - the whisper of the drum. It is still a whisper, but it is all relentable, all annoying. A short musical phrase is sad, monotonous and at the same time some defiantly cheerful - the orchestra tools begin to echo. Dry fraction of the drum louder. War. The drums are already thundered. A short, monotonous and alarming musical phrase masters all orchestra and becomes scary. Music rages so much that it is difficult to breathe. It does not go anywhere ... This enemy comes to Leningrad. He threatens death, the pipes growl and fistle. Death? Well, they are not afraid, do not depart, we will not give them away to the enemy. Music rages frantically ... Comrades, it's about us, it's about the September days of Leningrad, full wrath and challenge. The orchestra rattle fiercely - everyone in the same monotonous phrase is ringing fanfares and uncontrollably carry the soul to meet mortal battle ... and when there is no longer breathing from the thunder and the Orchestra, suddenly everything breaks down, and the topic of war goes to the majestic Requiem. Lonely Bassoon, covering the raging orchestra, raises his low, tragic voice. And then sings one, one in the coming silence ...

"I don't know how to characterize this music," the composer himself says, "maybe in it the tears of a mother or even feeling when the sorrow is so great that the tears no longer remains."

Comrades, it's about us, this is our great short sorrow of our relatives and loved ones - Defenders of Leningrad, who died in battles on the approaches to the city, fallen on his streets, who were dead in his whip houses ...

We have not been crying for a long time, because Mount Our more tears. But by killing tears facilitating the soul, Mount did not kill lives in us. And the seventh symphony tells about it. Its second and third parts, also written in Leningrad, is transparent, joyful music, full of exhaustion and worship before nature. And this is also about us, about people who have learned to love in a new way and appreciate life! And it is clear why the third part merges with the fourth: in the fourth part, the theme of the war, excitedly and defiantly repeated, bravely goes into the theme of the coming victory, and the music is freely raging again, and the unthinkable power reaches its solemn, formidable, almost cruel education, physically shake building.

We will defeat the Germans.

Comrades, we will definitely win them!

We are ready for all the tests that still expect us, ready in the name of the celebration of life. The "Leningrad Symphony" testifies to the "Leningrad Symphony", the work of world sound, created in our deposited, starving, deprived of light and warmth, in the city, fighting for the happiness and freedom of all mankind.

And the people who came to listen to the "Leningrad Symphony", stood up and standing applauded the composer, son and defender of Leningrad. And I looked at him, little, fragile, in big glasses, and thought: "This man is stronger than Hitler ..."

Leningrad blockade.

My research work is informational in nature, I wanted to get better to get acquainted with the history of Leningrad's blockade through the history of Symphony No. 7 Dmitry Dmitrievich Shostakovich.

Soon after the start of the war, Leningrad was captured by German troops, the city was blocked from all sides. The blockade of Leningrad lasted 872 days - on September 8, 1941, the railway of Hitler was cut the Moscow-Leningrad railway, Lisselburg was captured, Leningrad was surrounded from Sushi. The capture of the city was part of the War Plan developed by Nazi Germany against the USSR plan "Barbarossa". It was envisaged that the Soviet Union should be completely crushed within 3-4 months of summer and the fall of 1941, that is, during the "Blitzkrieg". Evacuation of residents of Leningrad lasted from June 1941 to October 1942. During the first period of evacuation of the blockade of the city, residents seemed impossible, and they refused to move somewhere. But initially, children began to be taken from the city to the areas of Leningrad, which the German shelves began to grab rapidly. As a result, 175 thousand children were returned back to Leningrad. The blockade of the city was taken out of it 488,703 people. At the second stage of evacuation, which occurred from January 22 to April 15, 1942, 554,186 people were exported by the ice "way of life". The last stage of evacuation, from May to October 1942, was carried out mainly by water in Ladoga Lake on the Large Earth, about 400 thousand people were shipped. In total during the war years, about 1.5 million people were evacuated from Leningrad. Food cards were introduced: from October 1, workers and engineering workers began to receive 400 g of bread per day, all the rest- 200 g. Public transport was stopped, because by winter 1941- 1942 There are no fuel reserves and electricity. Food reserves were quickly reduced, and in January 1942 per person accounted for only 200/125 g bread per day. By the end of February 1942 more than 200 thousand people died in Leningrad from the cold and hunger. But the city lived and fought: the factories did not stop their work and continued to produce military products, the theaters of the museums worked. All this time, when the blockade was going, the Leningrad Radio was shown, where poets and writers were performed.In a besieged Leningrad, in the darkness, in hunger, in sorrow, where death, as a shadow, dragged on his heels ... A professor of the Leningrad Conservatory remained, glorified by the composer - Dmitry Dmitrievich Shostakovich. His soul was ripened the grand ideas of the new essay, which should have repeated thought and feelings of millions of Soviet people.A composer began with an extraordinary inspiration for creating his 7th symphony. A composer began with an extraordinary inspiration for creating his 7th symphony. "Music was uncontrollable from me," he recalled later. Neither the hunger nor the beginning of the autumn cold and the lack of fuel, nor frequent art-stucks and bombing could prevent inspired work. "

Pre-war life D. D. Shostakovich

Shostakovich was born and lived in complex and ambiguous times. He did not always adhered to the Policy of the party, then conflicted with the authorities, then receiving her approval.

Shostakovich is a unique phenomenon in the history of world musical culture. In his work, like any other artist, our complex cruel era, contradictions and the tragic fate of humanity, were reflected, those shocks that had fallen into the share of his contemporaries were incarnations. All troubles, all the suffering of our country in the twentieth century. He missed through his heart and expressed in his works.

Dmitry Shostakovich was born in 1906, "at sunset" of the Russian Empire, in St. Petersburg, when the Russian Empire has lived its last days. By the end of the First World War and the subsequent revolution, the past was resolutely moored, as the country accepted a new radical socialist ideology. Unlike Prokofiev, Stravian and Rakhmaninov, Dmitry Shostakovich did not leave his homeland to live abroad.

He was the second of the three children: his older sister Maria became a pianist, and the youngest Zoya is a veterinarian. Shostakovich studied in a private school, and then in 1916 - 18th, during the revolution and formation of the Soviet Union, was engaged in the school I. A. Glyasser.

Later, the future composer entered the Petrograd conservatory. Like many other families, he and his loved ones were in a difficult situation - constant starvation weakened the body and, in 1923, Shostakovich was urgently left for a sanatorium in the Crimea. In 1925, he graduated from the conservatory. The thesis of the young musician was the first symphony, which immediately brought the 19-year-old young woman with wide fame at home and in the West.

In 1927, he met Nina Warzar, a student learning physics on which he later married. In the same year, he became one of the eight finalists in the international competition. Chopin in Warsaw, and the winner was his friend Lion Worish.

Life was difficult, and to continue to keep a family and a widowed mother, Shostakovich composed music for films, ballets and theater. When Stalin came to power, the situation was complicated.

Career Shostakovich was experiencing rapid ups and falls several times, but 1936 was turning in his fate, when Stalin visited him Opera "Lady McBet Mtsensky County" by N. S. Leskova and was shocked by her cutting satire and innovative music. The official reaction followed immediately. The Government newspaper "Pravda" in the article under the heading "Supbar instead of the music" subjected to the present defeat, and Shostakovich was recognized as the enemy of the people. Opera immediately removed from the repertoire in Leningrad and Moscow. Shostakovich was forced to cancel the premiere of his recently completed symphony No. 4, fearing that she could cause even more troubles, and began working on a new symphony. In those terrible years there was a period when for many months the composer lived, waiting for arrest at any time. He went to bed dressed and had a small suitcase at the ready.

At the same time, his relatives were arrested. His marriage was also threatened due to hobbies on the side. But with the birth of the daughter of Galina in 1936, the situation was corrected.

Pursued by the press, he wrote his symphony number 5, which, fortunately, passed with great success. She was the first culmination of the symphonic creativity of the composer, her premiere in 1937 conducted young Evgeny Mravinsky.

The history of the creation of the "Leningrad" symphony.

On the morning of September 16, 1941, Dmitry Dmitrievich Shostakovich spoke on Leningrad Radio. At this time, the city bombed fascist aircraft, and the composer spoke to the hum of anti-aircraft guns and bomb breaks:

"It's time ago I finished score of two parts of a large symphonic essay. If this essay will be able to write well, it will be possible to finish the third and fourth part, then it will be possible to name this essay of the seventh symphony.

Why do I inform about it? ... In order for the radio listeners who listen to me now, knew that the life of our city is normal. We all now carry our battle watch ... Soviet musicians, my dear and numerous arms comrades, my friends! Remember that our art threatens a great danger. Let us protect our music, will be honest and selflessly work ... "

Shostakovich - outstanding orchestra master. He thinks orchestralo. Instrumental timbres and combinations of tools with striking accuracy and in many respects are used in a new one as the living participants of its symphony drama.

Seventh ("Leningrad") Symphony- one of the significant works of Shostakovich. Symphony was written in 1941. And most of it is Sochinna in a besieged Leningrad.Fully symphony composer completed in Kuibyshev (Samara), where he was evacuated in 1942 by order.The first performance of Symphony took place on March 5, 1942 in the hall of the Palace of Culture on Kuibyshev Square (modern Opera and Ballet Theater) under the control of S. Samocud.The premiere of the seventh symphony took place in Leningrad in August 1942. In the besieged city, people found the strength to fulfill the symphony. In the orchestra of the radio, there are only fifteen people left, and for performance required at least a hundred! Then convened all the musicians in the city and even those who played in the Army and Fleet front orchestras near Leningrad. On August 9, the seventh symphony of Shostakovich was played in the hall of the Philharmonic. Conducted Karl Ilyich Eliasberg. "These people were decent to fulfill the symphony of their city, and the music was worthy of themselves ..."- they wrote Olga Bergoltz and Georgy McOnoenko in the Komsomolsk Pravda.

Seventh symphony often compare with documentary works of war, called the "chronicle", "document"- so accurately transfers the spirit of events.The idea of \u200b\u200bsymphony is the struggle of the Soviet people against the fascist occupiers and faith in victory. This is how the composer itself determined the idea of \u200b\u200bSymphony: "My symphony is inspired by the formidable events of 1941. The cunning and treacherous attack of the German fascism on our homeland rally all the forces of our people for releasing the cruel enemy. The seventh symphony is a poem about our struggle, about our coming victory. "So he wrote in the newspaper" True "on March 29, 1942.

The idea of \u200b\u200bsymphony is embodied in 4 parts. Of particular importance is the first part. Shelakovich wrote about her in the author's explanation, published in the concert program on March 5, 1942 in Kuibyshev: "The first part talks about how the Terrible Power - War broke into our beautiful peaceful life. These words determined two topics opposed in the I Parts of the Symphony: the topic of peaceful life (the topic of the Motherland) and the topic of the burst war (the fascist invasion). "The first topic is the image of joyful creation. It emphasizes the Russian squeezed-wide warehouse of the theme filled with calm confidence. Then the melodies that embody images of nature sound. They, as it were, dissolve, melting. Warm summer night sank to the ground. And people, and nature - everything plunged into sleep. "

In the episode of invasion, the composer conveyed inhuman cruelty, blind, lifeless-creepy automatism, inextricably associated with the appearance of the fascist military. It is very appropriate to the expression of the lion of Tolstoy - "evil car."

Here's how they characterize the image of the enemy invasion of the music of the L. Danilevich and A. Tretyakov: "To create such an image, Shostakovich mobilized all the means of his composer arsenal. The topic of invasion is deliberately stupid, square - reminds Prussian military march. It is repeated eleven times - eleven variations. Changes harmony, orchestration, but the melody remains unchanged. It is repeated with iron inefficivity - exactly, notota in a note. All variations are permeated by fractional rhythm march. This rhythmic figure of small drums is repeated 175 times. The sound gradually increases from the barely caught Pianissimo to thunderstiversimo. " "Running to gigantic sizes, the topic draws some unimaginably gloomy, a fantastic monster, which, increasing and sealing, moves forward more and more rapidly." This topic resembles the "dance of scientists of rats under the Dudka rats" wrote about A. Tolstoy.

What makes such a powerful development of the topic of enemy invasion? "At the moment when everything would seem to be any living, being unable to resist the onslaught of this terrible, the miracle of the monster, the miracle is happening: a new force appears on the way, which is not only able to confront, but also to fight. This is the topic of resistance. Marshmaking, solemn, she sounds passion and great anger, resolutely opposition to the topic of invasion. The moment of its appearance is the highest point in musical dramaturgy 1 part. After this collision, the theme of invasion loses its monolith. It crushes, mines. All attempts to attempt are in vain - the death of the monsters is inevitable. "

The fact that wins symphony as a result of this struggle, Alexey Tolstoy said very accurately: "On the threat of fascism- determine the person- he (that is, Shostakovich.- G.S.) answered the symphony about the victorious celebration of the whole high and beautiful, created humanitarian ... ".

In Moscow, the seventh symphony of D. Shostakovich sounded March 29, 1942, 24 days after her premiere in Kuibyshev. In 1944, the poet Mikhail Matusovsky wrote a poem called "Seventh Symphony in Moscow".

Probably remember you
How to have a silence then penetrated
Night quarters of Moscow
Potions of the column hall.

There was bad weather
Smelly smelled little
As if this cereal
According to the cards, we were issued.

But the city observed in darkness,
With sadly crawling tram,
Was this siege in winter
Beautiful and unforgettable.

When composer barrel
Shot to the foot of the piano,
In the orchestra bow behind the bow
Woke up, lit, beyond

As if from the darkness of the night
Reli's gusts reached us.
And immediately at all violinists
From the supports of the sheets flew.
And this rainy me,
In the trenches, the fistop of frozen,
Nobody before him was
Scheduled as score.

Thunderstorm rolled over the world.
Never ever at the concert
So close did not feel the hall
The presence of life and death.

As a house from floors to rafters,
Covered by flame immediately
Orchestra, disassemble, cried
One musical phrase.

She flames breathed in the face.
Duffled her canonade.
She broke through the ring
Blocade nights of Leningrad.

Buzzed in a deaf blue
All day stayed on the road.
And at night ended in Moscow
Lilac anxiety.

Post-war years.

In 1948, Shostakovich again had trouble with the authorities, he was declared a formalist. He was later dismissed from the conservatory, and his writings were prohibited. The composer continued to work in the theater and film industry (between 1928 and 1970 he wrote music for almost 40 films).

Stalin's death in 1953 brought some relief. He felt relative freedom. This allowed him to expand and enrich his style and create works that differed even more skill and range that often reflected violence, horror and bitterness of those times that the composer survived.

Shostakovich visited the UK and America and created several more ambitious works.

60s. Pass under the sign all worsening health. The composer carries two heart attacks, the disease of the central nervous system begins. Increasingly, you have to lie in the hospital for a long time. But Shostakovich tries to lead an active lifestyle, compose, although every month he is getting worse.

The death of the composer rank on August 9, 1975. But after death, the omnipotent government did not leave him alone. Despite the desire of the composer to be buried in his homeland, in Leningrad, he was buried on a prestigious Novodevichy cemetery in Moscow.

The funeral was postponed on August 14, because foreign delegations did not have time to come. Shostakovich was the "official" composer, and His officially buried him with loud speeches of representatives of the party and the government, who were criticized so many years.

After death, he was officially proclaimed by a loyal member of the Communist Party.

Conclusion.

Each in war performed feats - on the front line, in the partisan detachments, in concentration camps, in the rear at the factories and in hospitals. They committed feats and musicians who wrote music in inhuman conditions and performed it on the fronts and for the rear workers. Thanks to their feat, we know a lot about the war. The 7th Symphony is not only a musical, this is a military feat of D. Shostakovich.

"I invested a lot of strength and energy in this essay," the composer wrote in the Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper. - I never worked with such a lift as now. There is such a winged expression: "When the cannons rumble, then the muses are silent." This rightly refers to those cannons that their rumble is suppressing life, joy, happiness, culture. That rummage of darkness, violence and evil. We fight in the name of the celebration of the mind over the obscuration, in the name of the celebration of justice over barbarism. There are no more noble and elevated tasks than those who inspire us to fight the dark forces of Hitlerism. "

Works of art created during the war years are monuments of military events. The seventh symphony is one of the most ambitious, monumental monuments, this is a live page of the story that we should not forget about.

The seventh "Leningrad" symphony is one of the greatest chief of the XX century. The history of its creation and first performances, the strength and scale of the impact of this music on contemporaries is truly unique. The name of the name of Shostakovich for a wide audience was forever soldered with the "famous Leningradka," the symphony of Anna Akhmatova called.

The first months of the war composer spent in Leningrad. Here on July 19 began working on the seventh symphony. "I never composed as quickly as now," said Shostakovich. Before the evacuation in October, the first three parts of the symphony were written (during work on the second part around Leningrad, the ring of blockades was closed). The final was completed in December in Kuibyshev, where on March 5, 1942, the Bolshoi Theater Orchestra under the administration of Samuel sulfur performed the seventh symphony for the first time. Four months later, in Novosibirsk, she sounded performed by the deserved team of the republic under the direction of Eugene Mravinsky. The symphony began to execute abroad - in June, the premiere in the UK was held in July - in the United States. But in February 1942, the words of Shostakovich were published in the newspaper "Izvestia": "My dream, so that the seventh symphony in the near future was fulfilled in Leningrad, in his own city, who inspired me to create it." The blockade premiere of symphony is akin to the events, which at the olden times were made by legends transmitted from generation to generation.

The main "acting person" of the concert was the big symphony orchestra of the Leningrad Radiocomitus - the current academic symphony orchestra of the St. Petersburg Philharmonic was called during the war years. It was his share that he had the first to play the seventh symphony Shostakovich in Leningrad. However, there were no alternatives - after the start of the blockade, this team turned out to be the only symphony orchestra that remained in the city. For the performance of Symphony, an advanced composition was required - front-line musicians were addressed to the team. Only Symphony's scores were able to deliver to Leningrad - there were party on the spot. Posters appeared in the city.

On August 9, 1942 - a day, previously announced by the German command of the date of entry into Leningrad, - under the control of Charles Eliasberg, the Leningrad Premiere of "Leningrad Symphony" took place in the big hall of Philharmonic. The concert passed, according to the conductor, "with a completely crowded hall" (security provided the fire of Soviet artillery), broadcast on the radio. "Before the concert ... Upstairs installed spotlights to warm the scene so that the air was warmer. When we went to our consoles, the searchlights repaired. I barely seemed Karl Ilyich, a deafening applause rang out, the whole hall got up to welcome him ... And when we played it, we were allegedly standing ... From somewhere suddenly a girl with bouquet of living flowers suddenly appeared. It was so amazing! .. For the scenes, everyone rushed to hug each other, kissing. It was a great holiday. Still, we created a miracle. That's how our life and began to continue. We resurrected, "recalled the participant of the premiere of Ksenia Matus. In August 1942, the orchestra performed a symphony 6 times, four times in the Big Hall of Philharmonic.

"This day lives in my memory, and I will forever preserve the feeling of deepest thanks to you, admiration for your dedication to art, your artistic and civil feet," wrote Shostakovich to the orchestra to the 30th anniversary of the blockade of the seventh symphony. In 1942, in the telegram Carlo Eliasberg, the composer was more brief, but no less eloquent: "Dear friend. Many thanks. Pass hot gratitude to all the artists of the orchestra. I wish you health, happiness. Hello. Shostakovich. "

"There was an unprecedented, not significant in the history of wars, nor in the history of art, the" duet "of the symphony orchestra and artillery symphony. The formidable control instruments were covered with an equally terrible weapon - the music of Shostakovich. No projectile fell on the art area, but on the head of the enemy from the radio receivers, the avalanche of sounds collapsed on the head of the non-resting stream, proving that the Spirit was primed. These were the first volleys by Reichstagu! "

Path to the goal

Virtuoso was born on September 25, 1906 in the family, where they respected and loved music. Passing of parents passed to the Son. At 9, after watching the Opera N. A. Rimsky-Korsakov "Tale of Tsar Saltan," the boy said he intends to seriously engage in music. The first teacher became a mother who taught the game on the piano. Later she gave the boy to a music school, the director of which was the famous teacher I. A. Glasser.

Later, there was a misunderstanding between the student and the teacher regarding the choice of direction. The mentor saw a guy with a pianist, the young man dreamed of becoming a composer. Therefore, in 1918, Dmitry left the school. Perhaps if the talent remained to study there, the world would not know such a work today as 7 Symphony Shostakovich. The history of the composition of the composition is a significant part of the biography of the musician.

Melody of Future

The next summer, Dmitry went on audition to the Petrograd conservatory. There, a well-known professor and composer A. K. Glazunov noticed him. History mentions that this person turned to Maxim Gorky with a request to assist with a scholarship for young talent. On the question of whether he is good in music, Professor honestly replied that the style of Shostakovich him is someone else and incomprehensible, but this is the topic of the future. So, in the fall, the guy entered the conservatory.

But only in 1941, the seventh symphony of Shostakovich was written. The history of the creation of this work - takeoffs and falls.

Universal Love and Hate

Still learning, Dmitry created significant melodies, but only at the end of the conservatory wrote his first symphony. The work became a graduation work. Newspapers called him a revolutionary music in the world of music. Together with glory on a young man, a mass of negative criticism collapsed. Nevertheless, Shostakovich did not stop working.

Despite the amazing talent, he was not lucky. Each work failed with a crash. Many ill-wishers acutely condemned the composer before the 7th Shostakovich symphony came out. The history of the composition of the composition is interesting - the virtuoso composed it already at the peak of popularity. But before that, in 1936, the newspaper "True" has severely condemned ballets and operas of the new format. Ironically, unusual music from the productions, the author of which was Dmitry Dmitrievich, got on the irony of fate.

The composer was pursued, the works were banned. The fourth symphony became pain. For some time he slept dressed and with a suitcase near the bed - the musician was afraid of arrest at any time.

Nevertheless, pauses did not. In 1937 he released the fifth symphony, which surpassed past compositions and rehabilitated it.

But opened the world of experiences and feelings in music. Other work. Tragic and dramatic was the history of the creation of 7 Symphony of Shostakovich.

In 1937, he conducts classes on the composition in the Leningrad Conservatory, later receives the title of professor.

In this city, he cares for the Second World War. He met her Dmitry Dmitrievich in Blockade (the city was surrounded on September 8), further than him, as well as other artists of that time, taken out of the cultural capital of Russia. They evacuated the composer with the family first to Moscow, and then, October 1, in Kuibyshev (since 1991 - Samara).

Start of work

It is worth noting that the author began to work on this music, before the Great Patriotic War. In 1939-1940, the history of the creation of Symphony number 7 Shostakovich began. The first to hear her passages became students and colleagues. Initially, it was a simple topic that developed with a small drum kit. Already in the summer of 1941, this part has become a separate emotional episode of the work. Officially, the symphony started on July 19. After the author admitted that he never wrote so actively. Interestingly, the composer made an appeal to the Leningraders on the radio, where he reported creative plans.

In September, he worked on the second and third parts. December 27, the master wrote the final part. On March 5, 1942, 7 Symphony Shostakovich first sounded in Kuibyshev. The history of the creation of the work in the blockade is no less exciting than the premiere itself. She played her evacuated Bolshoi Theater Orchestra. Conducted Samuel Samokov.

Main concert

Master's dream was a performance in Leningrad. Great forces spent so that the music sounded. The task to organize the concert fell out to the only orchestra, which remained in the blockade Leningrad. The broken city was collected in a pile of musicians. Accepted everyone who could stand on their feet. Many front-line participated in the speech. Only music records were delivered to the city. Next, the parties painted and the posters were exposed. On August 9, 1942, 7 Symphony Shostakovich sounded. The history of the creation of the work is also unique in that it was on this day that the fascist troops planned to break through the defense.

Conductor became Karl Eliasberg. The order was given: "While there is a concert - the enemy must be silent." Soviet artillery provided calm and actually covered all the artists. Translined music on the radio.

It was a real holiday for exhausted residents. People cried and applauded standing. In August, the symphony was played 6 times.

World recognition

Four months after the premiere, the work sounded in Novosibirsk. In the summer, she was heard in the residents of Great Britain and the United States. The author became popular. People from all over the world captured the blockade history of the creation of 7 Symphony of Shostakovich. In the first few months, more than 60 million more than 20 million people of this continent listened to its first broadcast.

There were envious, who argued that the work would not get such popularity if not the drama of Leningrad. But despite this, even the most brave critic did not declare to declare that the author's work was notching.

There were changes in the territory of the Soviet Union. Asa was called the Beethoven XX century. The man received negatively responded about the genius composer S. Rakhmaninov, who said: "All artists have forgotten, only Shostakovich remained." Symphony 7 "Leningrad", the history of which costs respect, conquered the hearts of millions.

Music of the Heart

Tragic events sound in music. The author wanted to show the whole pain that not only the war leads, but he loved his people, but despised the power that rules them. His goal was to convey the feelings of millions of Soviet people. The master suffered with the city and residents and defended the walls by notes. Anger, love, suffering was embodied in such a product as the seventh symphony of Shostakovich. The history of creation covers the period of the first months of war and the start of the blockade.

The topic itself is a grand struggle of good and evil, peace and slavery. If you close your eyes and turn on the melody, you can hear how the sky is buzzing from enemy aircraft, like a native land moaning from dirty boots of invaders, how the mother is crying, who escorts the Son on death.

The symbol of freedom was the "famous Leningrad" - so called poetess Anna Akhmatova. On the one hand, the walls stood enemies, injustice, on the other - art, Shostakovich, 7 symphony. The history of creation briefly reflects the first stage of war and the role of art in the struggle for freedom!

Work on the lesson

Again war
Block again, -
Or maybe we forget about them?

I hear sometimes:
"Do not,
No wound beanis.
After all, it is true that we are tired
We are from the stories about the war.
And blockade scrapping
Poems quite quite. "

And it may seem:
Right
And convincing words.
But even if it is true
Such truth
Wrong!

I'm not in vain worried
So that the war was forgotten:
After all, this memory is our conscience.
She, like power, we need.

Today, our meeting is devoted to one of the most significant events related to the history of our city - the 69th anniversary of the full removal of the blockade of Leningrad. And the conversation will go about the musical work, which has become a symbol of a blockade Leningrad, about which Anna Akhmatova wrote the following lines:

And after me, the secret is sparkling
And named the seventh
On the unheard of the feast ripe ...
Pretending to be a tetrade,
Famous Leningrad
Returned to native ether.

About Symphony No. 7 D.D.Shostakovich. Now I suggest you listen to Dmitry Shostakovich's radio. Transfer from blockade Leningrad on September 16, 1941.

Teacher: Guys, what do you think, why D.D.Shostakovich spoke on the radio with this message, because the symphony has not yet been completed?

Pupils: For residents of a blockade city, this message was very important. This meant that the city continues to live and betrayed forces and courage in the coming struggle.

Teacher: Of course, and then, D.D.Shostakovich already knew that she would be evacuated and he personally wanted to talk to Leningraders, with those who would stay in the blockade city to cow victory, report this news.

Before you continue the conversation, please remember what symphony is.

Pupils: Symphony - a musical work for a symphony orchestra, which consists of 4-parts.

Presentation. Slide number 3 (definition of symphony)

Teacher: And Symphony is a genre of software music or not?

Pupils: As a rule, symphony is a product of non-software music, but symphony No. 7 D.D.Shostakovich is an exception, because it has a program name - "Leningrad".

Teacher: And not only therefore. D.D.Shostakovich, in contrast to other similar exceptions, gives the name to each of the parts, and I suggest you to meet them.

Presentation. Slide number 4.

Teacher: Today we will take a fascinating journey to some addresses in our city, which are related to the creation and execution of the "Leningrad" symphony of D.D.Shostakovich.

Shostakovich, installed on the part of a large Pushkinskaya street. It was in this house that the composer wrote the first three parts of his seventh (Leningrad) symphony.

Teacher: Final Symphony, completed in December 1941, the composer already created in Kuibyshev, where she was first fulfilled on the stage of the Opera and Ballet Theater and was executed on March 5, 1942 by the Orchestra of the Big Theater of the USSR Union under the control of S. A. Samoku.

Presentation. Slide number 8.

Teacher: How do you think Leningrads thought about the blocked city of the performance of Symphony in Leningrad?

Pupils: On the one hand, the main goal, which stood before the hungry inhabitants of the blockade city, is of course survive. On the other hand, we know that theaters, radio worked in Blocked Leningrad, the enthusiasts who were obsessed with desire, by all means, to execute the "Leningrad" symphony during the blockade to prove to everyone that the city is alive and Support lengrads who were exhausted from the famine.

Teacher: Completely right. And now, when the symphony sounded in Kuibyshev, Moscow, Tashkent, Novosibirsk, New York, London, Stockholm, Leningraders waited for her in their city, the city where she was born ... But how to deliver Symphony to Leningrad to Leningrad. After all, are these 4 sweaty notebooks?

Pupils: I watched the feature film, which was called "Leningrad Symphony". So in this film, the partition in the block for the city delivered a pilot, in my opinion, the captain, exposing his life danger. He is in the block for the city of medicine and delivered the score of the symphony.

Teacher: Yes, the film that you mentioned and is called, and the scenario of this picture was written in accordance with the real historical events, the truth is a bit changed. So the pilot was the twentieth lieutenant Litvinov, who on July 2, 1942 under solid fire of German anti-aircraft, breaking through the fire ring, delivered medicines to the blockade city and four voluminous notebooks with the seventh symphony. At the airfield, they were already waiting and taken away as the greatest jewelry.

Twenty-year pilot-Leningradets
A special flight in the distant rear has accomplished.
He all received a notebook
And next to the helm put.

And beat the enemy guns, and in full
Stuck tight fire wall,
But the pilot knew: we are waiting not only bread,
Like bread, like life, we need music.

And he rose for seven thousand meters
Where only the stars light transparent pour.
It seemed: not motors and not winds -
Powerful orchestras sing to him.

Through the siege iron ring
Symphony broke and sounds ....
In the morning, he handed the score
Orchestra of Front Leningrad!
I.Shinkorenko

Teacher: The next day, the "Leningrad truth" appeared short information: "Leningrad was delivered by the plane of the seventh symphony of Dmitry Shostakovich. Public execution will be held in the Big Hall of the Philharmonic. " And we will return to our map with addressees and make the next route.

Presentation. Slide number 5.

Teacher: The only team remaining in Leningrad was a big symphony orchestra of the Leningrad Radiocomite, and it was there that the score of Symphony was delivered. Therefore, our next address: Italian street, house number 22, Radio House. (Hyperlink to Slide number 10)

Presentation. Slide number 10.

Teacher: But when the chief conductor of the Grand Symphony Orchestra of the Leningrad Radiocomitte Karl Eliasberg revealed the first of the four notebooks of the score, he jerked:

Presentation. Slide number 11.

instead of ordinary three pipes, three trombones and four horn, Shostakovich was twice as much. Yes, drums added! Moreover, on the scooter of the Shostakovich hand written: "The participation of these tools in the performance of symphony is required." And "necessarily" is firmly emphasized. It became clear that with those few musicians who still stayed in the orchestra, the symphony does not play. Yes, and they played their last concert on December 7, 1941.

From the memories of Olga Bergoltz:

"The only Radiocomitte orchestra in Leningrad has gone away from hunger during the tragic world's first blockade winter, almost half. Never forget me how the dark winter morning the then artistic director of the Radiocomitte of Yakov Babushkin (in 1943 he died at the front) Dictated Tutorial another report on the state of the orchestra: - The first violin dies, the drum died on the way to work, horn at death ... and all -taki these survivors, scaryly exhausted musicians and the leadership of the radio and the idea began to fulfill the idea, by all means to fulfill the seventh in Leningrad ... Yasha Babushkin through the city committee of the party took out additional pieces, but still there were few people for the execution of the seventh Symphony ... "

How did the leadership of the Leningrad Radiocomitte come out of the situation created?

Pupils: Announced Radio message about the invitation to the orchestra of all the remaining musicians.

Teacher: It is with such an announcement that the leadership of the radio amateur appealed to the Leningraders, but it did not solve the problem. What else there are assumptions?

Pupils: Maybe we were looking for musicians in hospitals?

Teacher: not only searched, but also found. I want to introduce you to unique, in my opinion, a historic episode.

Musicians were looking for throughout the city. Eliasberg, staggering from weakness, went by hospitals. Drummer Zhaudat Aydarova, he found in the dead, where he noticed that the fingers of the musician moved slightly. "Yes, he is alive!" - exclaimed the conductor, and this is a moment was the second birth of Jaudat. Without it, the fulfillment of the seventh would be impossible - after all, he had to beat the drum fraction in the "invasion theme".

Teacher: But the musicians still lacked.

Pupils: And may invite those who wish and teach them to play musical instruments that were missing.

Teacher: Well, it is already from the area of \u200b\u200bfantasy. No guys. We decided to ask for help from a military command: many musicians were in the trenches - defended the city with weapons in their hands. The request was satisfied. By order of the head of the political department of the Leningrad Front, major General Dmitry Holodova,the musicians who were in the army and the fleet received a prescription to arrive in the city, in the radio house, having musical instruments with him. And they reached out. In the documents they have facilitated: "Commanded to Eliasberg Orchestra."And here we need to go back to the map to determine the next point of our trip. (Hyperlink to slide number 5 with map and addresses).

Presentation. Slide number 5.

Teacher: I invite you to the Big Hall of the Philharmonic named after D.D.Shostakovich at Mikhailovskaya Street, house number 2.

Presentation. Slide number 12.

It was in this legendary hall that rehearsals began. They lasted five to six hours in the morning and in the evening, ending sometimes late at night. Artists issued special passes that were allowed to walk through the night Leningrad. And the conductor Employees of the traffic police even gave a bike, and in Nevsky Prospekt could see a high, extremely disgraced person, diligently torque pedal - hurrying to a rehearsal or smithing, or to the Polytechnic Institute - to the FRONT political management. In the interruptions between rehearsals, the conductor was in a hurry to settle many other orchestra affairs.

And now think what group of the symphony orchestra accounted for the harder?

Pupils: Probably, these are groups of brass bands, especially copper, because people simply physically could not blow into brass tools. Some have fainted right at rehearsals.

Teacher: Later, the musicians attached to the city council - once a day they got a hot lunch.

A few days later, posters appeared in the city, which were held next to the appeal of the "enemy at the gate".

Presentation. Slide number 13.

They were notified that on August 9, 1942, the premiere of the Seventh Symphony of Dmitry Shostakovich will be held in the Big Hall of the Leningrad Philharmonic. Playing a large symphony orchestra of the Leningrad Radiocomite. Conducts K. I. Eliasberg. Sometimes right there, under the bill, stood a lightweight table, on which the packs were lying with the concert program printed in the printing house.

Presentation. Slide number 14.

Behind him sat warmly dressed a pale woman - she could not be able to warm up after a harsh winter. People stayed near her, and she pulled them a concert program, imprinted very simply, unhalyaneously, alone with black paint.

On the first page it is epigraph:

Presentation. Slide №15

"Our fight against fascism, our coming victory over the enemy, my native city - Leningrad I dedicate my seventh symphony. Dmitry Shostakovich. " Reduced Large: "Seventh Symphony Dmitry Shostakovich". And at the bottom of the small: "Leningrad, 1942". This program served as an entrance ticket for the first execution in Leningrad seventh symphonies on August 9, 1942. Tickets disengaged very quickly - everyone who could walk, sought to get to this unusual concert.

Prepared for the concert and on the front line. One day when the musicians still painted the Symphony's score, commander of the Leningrad Front Lieutenant General Leonid Alexandrovich Govorov Invited artillery commanders to himself. The task was put briefly: during the execution of the seventh symphony of the composer Shostakovich, no enemy shell should be broken in Leningrad! Did you manage to fulfill the task?

Pupils: Yes, artilleryrs sat down for their "scores". First of all, the time calculation was made.

Teacher: What do you mean?

Students: Symphony execution lasts 80 minutes. The audience will begin to gather in the philharmonic in advance. So plus thirty minutes. Plus, the same on the part of the public from the theater. 2 hours 20 minutes Hitler's cannons must be silent. And therefore, 2 hours 20 minutes should our guns say - to perform their "fiery symphony".

Teacher: How many shells need for it? What calibres? Everyone followed in advance. And finally, what enemy batteries should be suppressed first? Did they change their position? Wasn't new guns? Who could answer these questions?

Pupils: Answer these questions had to explore. Scouts with their task coped well. Not only the batteries of the enemy were applied to the cards, but also its observation points, headquarters, communication nodes.

Teacher: guns guns, but enemy artillery should also be "blinded", destroying the supervisory points, "stunning", interrupting the link, "behead", defeating the heads. Of course, for the execution of this "fiery symphony", artillerymen had to determine the composition and "orchestra". Who entered it?

Pupils: It includes many long-range guns, experienced artilleryrs, many days leading a control-follower struggle. The "Bass" group of "Orchestra" amounted to the guns of the main caliber of the marine artillery of the Red Banner Baltic Fleet. For artillery accompaniment of musical symphony, the front allocated three thousand large-caliber shells.

Teacher: And who was appointed "Conductor" of this artillery "orchestra"?

Pupils: "Conductor" of the Artillery "Orchestra" was appointed commander of Artillery 42nd Army General-Major Mikhail Semenovich Mikhalkin.

Teacher: Approached the day of the premiere. Here is a draft rehearsal. This is evidenced by a few photographs that have come down to us.

Hearing and discussion

Ninth August ...
Forty second ...
Art Square ...
Philharmonic Hall ...
Front City People
Symphony strict
Heart listen sounds,
Accept the eye ...
It seemed on the moment them
cloudless sky ...
Suddenly in symphony sounds
Thunderstorms broke.
And immediately face, full wrath.
And fingers to the pain in the chair dug.
And in the hall of the column, like a taper gun,
Aimed in the depth -
Symphony of courage
The city listened to
Forgetting about war
And remembering the war.
N.Savkov

Teacher: In symphony works, as well as in the works of the stage genre, we continue to talk about drama. I hope you carefully listened to the poem N. Savkova, and they are ready to give me the answer: What is the basis of the drama of this symphony?

Pupils: The drama of this symphony is built on the conflict between the Soviet people on the one hand and the German invaders on the other.

Pupils: the moment of invasion of the "invasion theme" in the "theme of peaceful life of the Soviet people."

Teacher: One of the participants in the legendary execution of the Seventh Symphony of Shostakovich in the Blocade Leningrad Gobistka Ksenia Matus recalled: "... I barely seemed Karl Ilyich, a deafening applause rang out, the whole hall got up to welcome him ... And when we played it, we were applauded too. From somewhere suddenly a girl with a bouquet of living flowers appeared. It was so amazing! .. Behind the scenes everyone rushed to hug each other, kissing. It was a great holiday. Still, we created a miracle. That's how our life and began to continue. We resurrected. Shostakovich sent a telegram, congratulated us all. "

And himself, Karl Ilyich Eliasberg later he recalled: "I do not judge the success of that memorable concert. I just say that we have never played with such inspiration. And there is nothing surprising: the majestic theme of the Motherland, which the ominous shadow of invasion finds, pathetic requiem in honor of the fallen heroes - all this was close, expensive to every orchestrant, to everyone who listened to us that evening. And when the crowded hall exploded with applause, it seemed to me that I was again in the peaceful Leningrad, that the most cruel of all wars ever raged on the planet, already behind that the forces of reason, good and humanity won. "

And the soldier Nikolai Savkov, the performer of the other - "fiery symphony", after her ends will write poems:

And when in the beginning of the beginning
The conductor rose,
Above the edge of the front like thunder, great
Another symphony began -

Symphony of our Guards cannons,
So that the enemy did not beat the city,
So that the city of the seventh symphony listened. ...
And in the hall - a squall,
And on the front - a squall. ...

Teacher: This operation was called "Shkal".

During execution, the symphony was broadcast on the radio, as well as on the loudspeakers of the urban network. What do you think, and the enemy heard this broadcast?

Pupils: I think I heard.

Teacher: Then, try to assume that they were tested at this moment?

Pupils: I think the Germans are mocking when they heard. They believed that the city was dead.

Teacher: Much later, two tourists from the GDR, who founded Eliasberg, admitted to him:

“Then, on August 9, 1942, we realized that we would lose the war. We felt your strength capable of overcome hunger, fear and even death ... "

And it's time for us to go back to the map and choose the next addressee of our virtual travel. And we will go to the embankment of the Moika River, House 20, to the Academic Chapel named after M.I. Glinka.

Presentation. Slide №18.

Teacher: I see surprise on your faces, because this room we usually visited when the conversation went about choral music, but there are concerts and instrumental music on this legendary scene, with a light hand of N. Rimsky-Korsky, who organized instrumental in the chapel Classes and symphony orchestra.

Today we have a unique opportunity to look at the "Holy Saints", namely, at the rehearsal of the symphony orchestra, which leads, more precisely led ... Well, there is an assumption?

Pupils: Karl Ilyich Eliasberg?!

Teacher: Yes, my friends, the rehearsal of the rehearsal of the symphony orchestra of the Leningrad Radiocomitte under the control of K.I. Eliasberg, which was made in this room in 1967 were preserved. I think that you guessed and make a maestro with my musicians over what product.

Pupils: Leningrad Symphony D.D.Shostakovich.

Teacher: Yes, the most recognizable topic from this symphony. Maybe someone will risk assumed?

Pupils: Theme invasion from the first part.

Teacher: Completely right. So... (video phrase)
