  • Shostakovich's Dances of the Dolls is a suite of easy piano pieces compiled in 1953 from his Ballet Suites, which were themselves compilations of excerpts from his ballets, film scores and incidental music. The Dances are charming miniatures in the style of his Children's Notebook, Op. 69, from 1944.
    The opening "Lyrical Waltz" comes from the Ballet Suite No. 2; the next four installments -- "Gavotte," "Romance," and "Polka" and "Dance Petite Ballerina" -- come from the Ballet Suite No. 1; and the last two miniatures, "Waltz-Joke Hurdy-Gurdy" and "Waltz Dance," come from the Ballet Suite No. 4.

    Great performance! While this is not earthshaking music, it just shows the genius diversity of Shostakovich's talent!
    His experience of playing piano at the cinema in his youth kept his "feet on the ground" of accessible music.
    Let's face it, his symphonies are complex, but the one thing they have is appeal. Yes, the intellectual appeal of the symphonies is deep, not shallow like these pieces, but Shostakovich had his feet in many worlds: concert hall, movie world, and even in the world of children.
    I call attention to his 2nd Piano Concerto written for his son Maxim which is eminently playable and does have singable melodies.
    Ah the humanity of Dimitri.
    I see the picture of Dimitri sitting outside his apartment at night because he was sure the KGB would eventually come for him and he didn't want his family disturbed.
    Dimitri had it all: including a heart!

      He could never say no to anybody and the government took advantage of that to make him sign papers which he didn’t like
      Oleg Prokofiev said that "he tried to help so many people that ... less and less attention was paid to his pleas."
      He really was a good man :(

      I was a music student at San Francisco State in the 50's and Dmitri Shostakovich walked into a music history class I was taking and sat in back of me for 10 minutes and then got up and walked out.
      It turns out that the Russian government allowed Dmitri to travel outside of Russia to see how other countries handled their music programs.
      I was so lucky to actually get that close to the genius Dmitri.
      I think my obsession with Shostakovich started with this. I wish I could have talked to him, but I didn't get the opportunity.

      We're already at opus 69 at this point. Shostakovich already composed some of his greatest music by now. If you like this style though, check out his final symphony (15). He wrote it just a few years before he died, and it's honestly one of the most charming pieces I've ever heard.

      These are pedagogical pieces written specifically for children learning to play the piano. Shostakovich has other similar sets at varying degrees of difficulty. I suspect this particular set was aimed at 3rd or 4th year piano students. All other Soviet composers were also required to compose such sets for young students. Prokofiev, Khachaturian, and a host of others have written such piano sets.
