a miserable, cold, windy, bleak, gray winter afternoon, watching the sleet or freezing rain outside while downing a tumbler or two of straight vodka. Shostakovich is all about quintessentially Russian black comedy or blacker tragedy.
As French as Debussy is, as British as Elgar is, as American as Copland is, as Spanish as Granados is, as Hungarian as Bartok is, Shostakovich is even more Russian. Those who can't or won't put themselves in that frame of mind may as well go elsewhere.
