Dmitri Shostakovich’s (1906 - 1975) Babi Yar symphony piece has five movements for bass soloist, men’s chorus and large orchestra. The text is based on Yevgeny Yevtushenko’s poem Babi Yar, written in response to the suppression of the acknowledgement of the Nazi atrocity by Soviet authorities. Yevtushenko published the poem in 1961. Babi Yar is a reflection on the massacre as well as a searing condemnation of antisemitism.
