Additional info/contents	This symphony has been composed at the request of the conductor Kanat Akhmetov and dedicated to him and his orchestra, the State Wind Orchestra of Kazakhstan. The symphony consists of three parts. The oppression of human beings, of their personality and their rights under totalitarian regimes is the basic idea of the symphony. In the 1st movement one can hear the idyllic strains expressing the fate of human beings in a better future. Bearing this ideal in mind, they are willing to unite. At the beginning the music is very serene, but suddenly the music turns abruptly into chaos. Finnish chords, the conscious employment of D-major and the solemn strains are symbolizing anti-humanitarian ideologies rising to power. The 2nd movement symbolizes the crying people, the national tragedy, the requiem. The 3rd movement depicts the reign of terror under totalitarian regimes, which determine the fate of people. One can hear the diabolic laughing of the oppressors. The dodecaphonic fugue characterizes a fearful labyrinth, from which nobody can escape. I. Reminiscences about Future II. Sad end III. Unpredictability of the past
