 THE VOICE OF RUSSIA [VIS-A-VIS with the world]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
COMPOSER TIKHON KHRENNIKOV - THE GUEST OF The guest of the latest edition of the programme Vis-a-vis of the Voice of Russia was the famous Russian composer, Tikhon Khrennikov.
The Soviet people and the leadership liked Khrennikov's songs, mainly his music to the films made during the war such as the films about loyalty and love: "The Pig-tender and the Shepherd" and "At 6 o'clock in the evening after the war".
Tikhon Krennikov says: "The Pig-tender and the Shepherd" was a very popular film at that time.

All those attacked by Khrennikov in 1948 knew their careers were stymied, and until Stalin's death they lived in constant expectation of arrest, imprisonment or even execution.
She says that Shostakovich's self-abasement and "recantation" after the attacks from Khrennikov were, of course, feigned: her husband never accepted the criticisms that were levelled at him and never recognised the authority of those who made them.
Khrennikov was certainly flattered by the power and influence Stalin conferred on him, and he did his master's bidding with a vengeance: his ruthless imposition of "socialist realism" dogged Soviet music for decades and tormented the greats like Shostakovich and Prokofiev.

 Khrennikov, Violin Concerto No. 2 (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.cs.virginia.edu)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Amidst the detritus of Soviet culture awash with so many victims, Khrennikov is the rarest of the rare, a certified villain, a target seemingly tailor-made for our righteous indignation.
He was a callow 34-year-old when he was unexpectedly singled out by Stalin; it was out of fear for his life and the welfare of his family that he dutifully read the speeches prepared for him by the Central Committee.
Khrennikov makes no apologies; the composer he has always idolized is Prokofiev, on whose First Violin Concerto his own Second leans heavily.

Khrennikov was not really missed, although his absence was a disappointment to some.

 Prokofiev, Prisoner of the State/Part 2
Quick to join in was Tikhon Khrennikov, a mediocrity determined to make a splash.
From a file supplied by Khrennikov, Zhdanov was able to inform the assembly that not only had Prokofiev enjoyed a privileged youth attended by "downtrodden" servants, but that there was no record of him having helped the peasants with the harvest.
The egregious Khrennikov, now First Secretary of the Composers' Union, dutifully savaged the work for "bourgeois Formalism, anti-melodious content, and lack of understanding of Soviet heroism and Soviet humanity" - not so much criticism as a deliberate attempt to break Prokofiev's spirit and health for good.

 KHRENNIKOV: Three Symphonies - Evgeny Svetlanov/ USSR State Symphony Orchestra - Scribendum   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
In all fairness, Khrennikov was as much a pawn of Stalin as anyone else; and Dimitry Paperno claims that of all those involved in the arts, musicians likely suffered least, perhaps even due to Khrennikov”s intercession in their behalf.
Nevertheless, Khrennikov became identified with an arch-conservative, highly imitative style of composition that found its true medium in film scores but whose symphonic ambitions merely echoed the works of more gifted practitioners.
The Second Symphony (1942) is a big, wartime effort which might be compared favorably to the Shostakovich Leningrad Symphony.
