From 1947 till 1977 she taught composition at this college. In 1939 she entered Dmitri Shostakovich’s composition class at the Conservatory as the only female student in his class. Her composition teacher said of her:“I am convinced that the music of G. I. Ustvolskaya will achieve world fame, and be valued by all who hold truth to be the essential element of music.”[1]Shostakovich sent some of his own as yet unfinished works to Ustvolskaya, attaching great value to her comments. Some of these pieces contain quotations from his pupil’s compositions; for example, he employed the second theme of the Finale of her clarinet trio throughout the Fifth String Quartet and in the Michelangelo Suite (no. 9).Ustvolskaya was a pupil of Shostakovich from 1939 to 1941 and from 1947 to 1948, but her works from the 1950s onwards retain little influence of his style. Until 1961 none of her true works were performed other than patriotic pieces written for official consumption. The middle of the 1960s witnessed greater tolerance for modernist music, and interest in Ustvolskaya began to grow \u2013 the Leningrad Union of Composers organized in the 1970s evenings of her music, which received high praise from listeners and critics. Widespread recognition came after her music was performed in several concerts of the 1989 Holland Festival.Ustvolskaya  developed her own style, of  which she said, “There is no link whatsoever between my music and that of any other composer, living or dead.”[2] Among its characteristics are the use of repeated, homophonic blocks of sound — which prompted the Dutch critic Elmer Sch\u00f6nberger to call her “the lady with the hammer”[3] — unusual combinations of instruments (such as eight double basses, piano and percussion in her Composition No. 2); use of extreme dynamics (as in her Piano Sonata No. 6); the employment of groups of instruments to introduce tone clusters; sparse harmonic textures; and the use of piano or percussion to beat out unchanging rhythms.The music of Galina Ustvolskaya was not openly censured in the USSR. However, she was accused of being unwilling to communicate and of “narrowness” and “obstinacy”.In literature[edit]Ustvolskaya’s relationship with Shostakovich from her time as a student through the 1950s is fictionalized in William T. Vollmann’s National Book Award-winning historical novel Europe Central.Legacy and remembrance[edit]Ustvolskaya died in Saint Petersburg. Her manuscripts are stored in the archive of the Paul Sacher Stiftung[where?] since 1994.Ustvolskaya’s oeuvre is small, with only 21 pieces in her characteristic style (i.e. excluding the public, Soviet-style works).Concerto for piano, full string orchestra and timpani (1946)Sonata for cello and piano (1946) (destroyed)Piano Sonata No. 1 (1947)The Dream of Stepan Razin (\u0421\u043e\u043d \u0421\u0442\u0435\u043f\u0430\u043d\u0430 \u0420\u0430\u0437\u0438\u043d\u0430 \u2013 Son Stepana Razina) Bylina for bass and symphony orchestra (Russian folk text, 1949)Trio for clarinet, violin and piano (1949)Piano Sonata No. 2 (1949)Octet for two oboes, four violins, timpani and piano (1950)Sinfonietta (1951) (destroyed)Piano Sonata No. 3 (1952)Violin Sonata (1952)Twelve Preludes for piano (1953)Symphony No. 1, for two boys’ voices and orchestra (Text by Gianni Rodari, 1955)Suite for orchestra (1955)Piano Sonata No. 4 (1957)Symphonic Poem No. 1 (1959)Symphonic Poem No. 2 (1957)Grand Duet for piano and cello (1959)Duet for piano and violin (1964)Composition No. 1 Dona Nobis Pacem, for piccolo, tuba and piano (1971)Composition No. 2 Dies Irae, for eight double basses, piano and wooden cube (1973)Composition No. 3 Benedictus, Qui Venit, for four flutes, four bassoons and piano (1975)Symphony No. 2 – True and Eternal Bliss!, for male reciter and small orchestra (1979)Symphony No. 3 – Jesus Messiah, Save Us!, for male reciter and small orchestra (1983)Symphony No. 4 – Prayer, for contralto, piano, trumpet and tam-tam (1985\/7)Piano Sonata No. 5 (1986)Piano Sonata No. 6 (1988)Symphony No. 5 – Amen, for male reciter, oboe, trumpet, tuba, violin and wooden cube (1989\/90)Discography[edit]\u2013 Zoon \/ Oostendorp \/ Malov RN (Radio Netherlands)\u2013 Renggli \/ Le Clair \/ Schroeder Hat Art CD 6130\u2013 Tokarev \/ Arbuszov \/ Malov Megadisc MDC 7867\u2013 Members of the Sch\u00f6nberg Ensemble \/ de Leeuw* Philips 442 532-2\u2013 Osten\/ Hilgers \/ Hagen Koch 31 170-2 H1\u2013 Propischin \/ Kolosov \/ Goryachev \/ Vulik \/ Kovulenko \/ Peresipkin \/ Sokolov \/ Nefedov \/ Javmertchik \/ Sandovskaya \/ Malov Megadisc MDC 7867, Megadisc MDC 7858\u2013 Sch\u00f6nberg Ensemble \/ de Leeuw* Philips 442 532-2\u2013 Amsterdam Wind Ensemble \/ Friesen  RN (Radio Netherlands) Globe 6903\u2013 Danilina \/ Osipova \/ Rodina \/ Tokarev \/ Makarov \/ Shevchuk \/ Sokolov \/ Krasnik \/ Sandovskaya \/ Malov Megadisc MDC 7867\u2013 Sch\u00f6nberg Ensemble \/ de Leeuw*  Philips 442 532-2\u2013 Jones \/ Coffin \/ Keen \/ Stevenson \/ O\u2019Neill \/ Antcliffe \/ Newman \/ McNaughton \/ Stephenson \/ Stephenson Conifer 75605 51 194-2Concerto for Piano, String Orchestra and Timpani\u2013 Lubimov \/ Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie \/ Schiff Erato 0630 12 709-2\u2013 Seribryakov \/ Chamber Orchestra of the Leningrad Philharmonic \/ Malov.
