Silenced – Composers In Revolutionary Russia
Silenced – Composers In Revolutionary Russia © Thomas Frischhut
At the time of the centenary of the Russian Revolution, this film tells the untold story of how composers were first harnessed by the Revolution, and then destroyed by it. It demonstrates the power of meticulous research, skilful direction and sensitive editing. It features musical performances of surprising Russian works, among them Mossolov’s setting of newspaper advertisements about a missing dog with coffee-coloured spots and the sale of high quality leeches. But it also illustrates how the people's devotion to music could cost them their livelihood and their reputation.
