The Suite on Verses of Michelangelo Buonarroti (Сюита на слова Микеланджело Буонарроти, Op.145, 1974) is a cycle of song settings by Dmitri Shostakovich of eleven poems by Michelangelo Buonarroti, translated into the Russian language by Avram Efros.
These songs are some of the greatest late works of Shostakovich, which he composed after his Fourteenth and Fifteenth Symphonies. Shostakovich considered this work to be his “sixteenth symphony” and, along with his Viola Sonata, the last of his compositions.
This concert appeared to be a last fairwell of Ilya Silchukou before he had to leave his native country Belarus in 2021.
Мир - в слепоте: постыдного урока
Из власти зла не извлекает зрак,
Надежды нет, и всё объемлет мрак,
И ложь царит, и правда прячет око.
Когда ж, Господь, наступит то, чего
Ждут верные Тебе? Ослабевает
В отсрочках вера, душу давит гнёт;
