Symphony No. 7



The score to my Symphony No. 7 in C Major, Op. 60 dedicated to my homeland of Leningrad. I completed it on the 27 of December 1941. During that time, the symphony was extremely popular in both Russia and the West, as a showing of resistance to Nazi totalitarianism and militarism. Even today, it is seen as the major musical testament of the 25 million Soviet citizens who lost their lives in World War II, due to the German invasion.
