Like Shostakovich's music in the Friends of Music, will almost unanimously identified seven Shaw is their collective love, the legendary "Nazi Germany's footsteps," was repeatedly raised, and recognized as a tribute to the great Soviet people against Nazi fascist aggression stubborn resistance, is an ode to the nation.
But I strangely evaluation of Shaw seven low, especially in the mold of its melodies like "Nazi cruel oppression" disagree, I think it looks too exaggerated in the melody, simile and straightforward, so, already no longer that vague, ambiguous, winding streets of the Shostakovich.
Once rattling in breaks in the music, subtle twists and turns of expression peculiar Shore, will become less of baffling.
Later, I Laoxiao personal autobiography "witness", the saw him on the so-called "World War II theme": Shaw seven, eight individuals Shaw elaborated --- they are not as Nazi Germany invaded and made a complaint, and they are just membership this while the cover to expose and denounce the Stalinist tyranny he works, because only in the special context of World War II, he can borrow from the music so the vent anger and hatred, and not to be put to death threats.
I believe Laoxiao own this interpretation, it is in line with a repressed and persecuted artists wound of mind, or that the mental logic.
So we have from the period of seven famous melody Shaw: Nazi footsteps, you can logically logical to convert the image of Stalin hideous terrifying (and evil image of Nazi Germany anthropomorphic structures), or be abstracted into a approximation to the devil for the fate of mankind.
The problem is also just out here. Shostakovich's music can be a great achievement, it was his "Unspoken" ----- not from the subtle, veiled and gentle "hesitant", but was forced to lower the fear and fright-pressure the last resort to "hesitant", omnipresent risk of death, the ubiquitous spirit detention and monitoring, he as an artist 肖斯塔维奇 --- unwilling contrary to conscience art, betrayal art chastity, but to take Yin Hui, winding streets of the musical language to convey his real thoughts and mood.
Thus we see (realized) to Shore starting from their own experience, just reveal the fate of the invisible plight of a universal significance of human existence, like literature Kafka ---- him there is not a specific Stalinist tyrant, nor temporary threat of Nazi Germany's death, but he was still "trembling", still feel a never enter the "castle", and everywhere were suddenly faced arrest and trial of destiny, by yes, the fate of this abstract words, in Kafka figurative description, as his novels "The Trial" in front of the court sued the man and the doorman, is an eternal confrontation, no solution, terror exist.
When Shostakovich once accused by the Nazis, and straight from the heart to vent their anger and resentment, the relationship between man and destiny is no longer unpredictable, fear, trembling and even no solution, everything becomes clear, therefore it plain but lost the connotation.
Shostakovich's music most greatness lies in his unique expression of profound and painful (fate) approach, rather than venting and complaints.
