The Leningrad première of Shostakovich's Symphony No. 7 took place on 9 August 1942 during the Second World War, while the city of Leningrad (now St. Petersburg) was [ Siege of Leningrad|under siege ] by [ Nazi Germany|Nazi German ] forces.
Soviet military offensive, code-named Squall, intended to silence German forces during the performance. The symphony was broadcast also to the German lines
Soviet composer Dmitri Shostakovich (1906–1975) completed his Symphony No. 7 on 27 December 1941 and dedicated it to his native Leningrad. At the time the city was about 16 weeks into its [ Siege of Leningrad|900-day siege ] by Nazi German forces, which would kill about a third of the city's pre-war population.
Dmitri Shostakovich had intended [ Symphony No. 7 (Shostakovich) |the piece ]] to be premièred by the Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra, but because of the siege, that group was evacuated from the city, as was the composer himself.
The world première of the symphony was held on 5 March in Kuybyshev [ Samara, Russia|Kuybyshev ] with the Bolshoi Theatre Orchestra. The Leningrad première was performed by the surviving musicians of the Leningrad Radio Orchestra, supplemented with military performers. Most of the musicians were suffering from [[Effect of the Siege of Leningrad on the city#Food shortages|starvation]
Das Werk wurde bereits am 5. März 1942 in Kujbyschew unter der Leitung von Samossud uraufgeführt. Es folgten Aufführungen in Moskau (29. März 1942), London (22. Juni 1942) und New York (19. Juli 1942). Aus Propagandagründen hatte die sowjetische Führung beschlossen, die Sinfonie in Leningrad aufführen zu lassen und das Konzert im Rundfunk zu übertragen. Schostakowitsch äußerte ebenfalls den Wunsch nach einer Leningrader Aufführung. Als Eliasberg damit beauftragt wurde, die Leningrader Premiere der 7. Sinfonie zu leiten, waren lediglich 15 Musiker des Radio-Sinfonieorchesters verfügbar. Die anderen waren entweder bereits an Kälte und Hunger gestorben oder vom Militär eingezogen. Das Ensemble wurde durch Reservemusiker und Mitglieder von Militärkapellen verstärkt. Das Konzert fand am 9. August 1942 im großen Konzertsaal des Konservatoriums statt und wurde wie geplant vom Rundfunk live übertragen.

In the 1950s, Eliasberg had a visit from a group of East German tourists. "They went to see him and they told him they [had been] soldiers in the German army just on the edges of the city. They were listening to the broadcasts of that orchestra concert, including the seventh symphony of Shostakovich," Bychkov says. "They were hungry too. They were frightened as well. A lot of them didn't want to be there but had no choice. A lot of them got killed." The men told Eliasberg that when they heard the performance of Shostakovich's symphony they understood that a city of people who showed such spirit would not capitulate. One is reported to have said that his comrades shed tears when they heard the music. "Here were people representing the opposing side of the war, who needed music just as badly as the ones for whom it was composed," says Bychkov. "Because in the end it was composed for humanity. And the best proof is that today we still need it, we are still listening to it." Eliasberg would perform the symphony again in Leningrad on a handful of occasions. But his wartime concert would not be the launch of a stellar conducting career, nor would he be feted as a hero of Soviet culture. Instead he died, all but forgotten, in 1978.
