Description
Shostakovich's cooperation with one of the initiators of the Russian art of animated film (cartoons), Mikhail Tsekhanovsky (1889–1964), occupies a special place in the composer's cinematographic experiences. Tsekhanovsky proved to be the only director Shostakovich worked with on cartoons and in the genre of musical film-fairytales aimed first and foremost at a children's audience.
