      A masterpiece

      These preludes and fugues are among the masterpieces of the twentieth century. They aren't better known, I imagine, because many are deeply depressing -- they were written at the height of Stalinist repression, and some are intransigently inconsolable and bleak. Technically, some are extremely difficult, demanding the highest levels of...

      Great music, terrible binding.

      The music is wonderful, but the pages came apart almost from the beginning. I very easily separated all the pages from the binding and took them into a store specializing in mailing services and had them placed into a spiral binding for only a few dollars. Now I am happy...

      This book was made to be spiral bound...

      The Shostakovitch preludes and fugues are brilliant, imaginative, and diverse in character and mood. There are glittering etude-like pieces, funeral marches, lyrical pieces, and grandiose fugues that are colossal in scope. These pieces are unjustly neglected in the standard repertoire. Profuse with Russian idioms, virtuosity, and ingenious fugues, these pieces...
