Provides performers and researchers with a general overview of Shostakovich’s compositions. This thematic catalogue can be used as a starting point for further research on an individual piece or genre, or as a brief summary of total compositional output.
-
Published scores of Shostakovich’s works are included, as well as unpublished works with adequate documentation. This second edition includes three recently discovered unfinished works by Shostakovich. Most stage productions that utilize music by Shostakovich are not represented. The text is primarily in English.

Shostakovich’s works are given in chronological order of composition. Each entry includes a brief description of each piece, and a listing of opus number, place of composition, instrumentation, title (including individual movement titles and tempo markings), length of performance time, extant arrangements, and publication information. Entries do not provide incipits. A brief performance history is included when particularly relevant. These pieces are then recorded in a list organized according to genre. The indexes reference works by (1) Opus Number (2) Works without Opus Numbers (3) alphabetical listing of works, (4) awards, (5) list of names, and (6) a catalogue of the DSCH New Collected Works.
