UNTIL Saturday 28 February - original designs, photographs and costumes for Dmitri Shostakovich’s 1931 ballet ‘The Bolt’
Quote from the Composer:
“I live in the USSR, work actively
and count naturally on the worker and peasant
spectator. If I am not comprehensible to them
I should be deported.”
Shostakovich in discussion with an opera
audience, January 14, 1930; cited from
Laurel Fay Shostakovich: A Life (2000) p. 55
