Shostakovich's "Dresden" Quartet from 1960 scarcely needs an introduction. Its official dedication as a memorial to the victims of the 1945 Dresden fire bombing has long been supplanted by a focus on the obsessive use of Shostakovich's own DSCH motif (D - Eb - C - B), plus its references to a convoy marching to Siberia from his opera Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk, and the revolutionary song "Tortured by grievous unfreedom", as well as other works.
0:04 -1st movement (Largo)

This performance by the Borodin Quartet is from a studio recording made in Moscow, with the players Rostislav Dubinsky, Yaroslav Alexandrov, Dmitri Shebalin and Valentin Berlinsky.
I am hugely grateful to olla-vogala for publishing this score initially, and I hope his version with, I think, the Emerson Quartet reappears on YouTube soon.
