This suite was made by Prokofieff from the score of his third ballet for Diaghilev. Gerard McBurney comments that the ballet was “a highly entertaining product of that 1920s fashion for making art about the brave new world of machines and heavy industry and strong-muscled men engaged in hard labour. For good measure Prokofieff and his collaborators threw in a light-hearted sub-plot as well, about a sailor and his girl. The result is one of his most poster-paint scores, filled with bright and brittle imagery, breezy optimism and pulsing motor-rhythms.” When Prokofieff extracted the symphonic suite he cut and reordered the material and altered quite a few passages, to give the piece more of a symphonic feel and make it more effective in the concert hall. He ends the suite with the most exciting and original music in the score, an apotheosis of the life and sounds of an early 20th-century factory. He makes marvellous use of the orchestra to describe the humming and whirring of machinery, complete with spinning cogs and flywheels and the thunder of hammers and chains.

Shostakovich originally intended his Symphony No.6 to be a monumental homage to Lenin for vocal soloists, choir and large orchestra. Even in the year before its completion, he announced in the press that Vladimir Mayakovsky's poem “Vladimir Ilyich Lenin” was to form the textual basis for it. However, what was finally premiered in Moscow on 21 November 1939 as Symphony No. 6 did not meet these expectations in the slightest; nor was such a “Lenin Symphony” ever published by Shostakovich. The purely instrumental work opens with an expansive, introverted Largo followed by a short Scherzo and a brilliant “music hall gallop”, which Shostakovich considered the most accomplished piece of the symphony.
This volume is part of the revised and corrected new edition of all 15 symphonies by Dmitri Shostakovich published by Boosey & Hawkes and Sikorski as large format study scores for optimal legibility. All scores and the related orchestral parts have been newly computer typeset, and the orchestral parts are also compatible for performance use with scores in 'The New Collected Works of Dmitri Shostakovich'.
