Three Journeys Through Dark Landscapes The fourth episode examines the effect of fundamental political upheaval on the music of Bela Bartok, Dmitri Shostakovich and Witold Lutoslawski. All three composers actively embraced the climate of change in Eastern Europe and, despite adverse pressures, found a way to develop their own musical language in works of triumphant originality and power. With musical excerpts from: BARTOK: Bluebeard’s Castle, Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta; Concerto for Orchestra; SHOSTAKOVICH: Symphonies Nos. 4, 5 & 14; LUTOSLAWSKI: Concerto for Orchestra, Venetian Games; Symphony No. 3
