Surpassing with Schnittke (In preparation for 2014)
Culmination of Shostakovichs ideasQuotes Beethoven and ShostakovichModern but immediately effectivePolystylismTransformative works surpassing soundsIncludes all soundsRarely performedThe real legacy of Schnittke's music is its multidimensional exploration of what musical truth in the 20th century might be, from chaotic polystylism to heartfelt spiritualityOne of my life goals is to overcome the gap between serious music and music for entertainment, even if I break my neck doing so Schnittke
