{"product_id":"a-soviet-credo-pauline-fairclough-9781138264700","title":"A Soviet Credo: Shostakovich's Fourth Symphony","description":"In this book, Pauline Fairclough tackles one of the most significant and least understood of Shostakovich's major works. She argues that the Fourth Symphony was radically different from its Soviet contemporaries in terms of its structure, dramaturgy, tone and even language, and therefore challenged the norms of Soviet symphonism at a crucial stage of its development. Fairclough meticulously examines the score to inform a discussion of tonal and thematic processes, allusion, paraphrase and reference to musical types, or intonations. Such analysis is set deeply in the context of Soviet musical culture during the period 1932-6.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Pauline Fairclough\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138264709\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138264700\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.62d","brand":"Pauline Fairclough","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48444027076863,"sku":"9781138264700","price":79.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9146c411-2f92-4a58-91b9-00563e34449a.jpg?v=1777209502","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-soviet-credo-pauline-fairclough-9781138264700","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
