  The story of the writing of Dmitri Shostakovich's Seventh Symphony and its historic first performance in besieged Leningrad in 1942

  Written in 15 parts by Sarah Quigley and read by Peter Bland

  (12) Tanya tries to take Sonya's cello to sell for food and Nikolai is outraged. He finds little notes his daughter had written to her dead mother inside it. Shostakovich finishes the adagio, the 4th movement of his symphony. His wife Nina wants the family to leave the city and he arranges passage out for them all. Elias struggles with his hungry orchestra and he puts hair oil in his mother's soup to make it taste better (RNZ)
