The Fifth Symphony was a response to the censorship after his Soviet-hated Fourth Symphony and his opera Lady Macbeth, which is also in the video. But other than those pieces, this video is simply to show how Shostakovich referenced a few of his own works within his Eighth String Quartet.

Are those his pieces that were censored by soviet authorities?
