Using the tools of Sonata Theory, the author offers an analytical approach to Shostakovich's music, giving insights into the quartets, showing how his mastery of form has enabled these works to be heard as active participants in the Soviet and Western cultural discourses of their time, while remaining relevant to twenty-first-century listeners.
