I’m probably the only one lol

But seriously, I also love the classical music from the Soviet Union (and I don’t mean just household names like Shostakovich).

    Have to have a lil’ nerd out here…Two of my favorite composers are also anti-fascists:

    Shostakovich (of course, but really he is a genius) and Hungarian anti-fascist Béla Bartók. Bartók is considered one of the fathers of ethnomusicology and a lot of his music is based upon the folk melodies and harmonies that he collected and expanded upon. He was unafraid of using a lot of tritones and ending works on a V chord. He really knew how to use dissonance to excite the ear and still sound pretty. If you only check out one work of his it’s got to be his Concerto for Orchestra.

    Here’s a link of my favorite recording of the final movement, but I highly recommend listening to the entire piece!

      Bartok is such an insane genius. Completely unpredictable and mind expanding.
