MIASKOVSKI: MUSIC FOR STRINGS
Composing wasn’t a craft, profession or means to earn a living for Miaskovsky – it was his all-consuming passion. The composer of dozens of major orchestral works (including 27 symphonies), concertos, 13 string quartets, sonatas, 118 songs (Romances), etc., the Russian composer enjoyed world-wide popularity during the 1920’s and 30’s.
He was rated one of the ten greatest contemporary composers in a survey made by CBS of its radio audience in 1935. The communist state condemned his works in the 1940’s, however, which lead to their rapid disappearance from the concert repertoire.
