The 18th Symphony is also, as the title suggests, colored by anti-war consciousness. It is a kind of oratorio with voices, using poems by Soviet poets Sergei Orlov and Alexander Toaldovsky, and texts derived from folk songs. Each poem is filled with intense sadness and anger, and poses great problems for all. But, as always, Weinberg does not coldly dismiss his listeners, and perhaps the redeeming quality of the music is that it is somehow hopeful.The Trumpet Concerto was written much earlier, and its premiere was given on January 6, 1968 by the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by the virtuoso Timofey Dokshchel and Kirill Kondrashin. It is an interesting work with cynical and grotesque passages scattered throughout, strongly influenced by Shostakovich, who was a great admirer of Weinberg at the time, and is highly recommended as an introduction to Weinberg.
