Ian Crisp responds to my laundry list of great late works:

>>Shostakovich: Symphonies 13 & 14, violin sonata, string quartets 13 on

>What's wrong with Symphony 15?

Absolutely nothing.  But I felt it didn't fit the definition supplied by
the original post.  It's not an "autumnal" work.  In fact, I think of it
as a new beginning for Shostakovich.
