Unknown Shostakovich Opera Discovered
"Large fragments of a satirical opera, Orango, which Shostakovich composed in 1932 - a project of which almost no one was aware - have been found in Moscow. The English musicologist Gerard McBurney is in the process of preparing a performable score of this [futurist] fable." Le Devoir (Montreal) 03/21/09 (in French)
