Shostakovich composed many ballet scores, which kept the income flowing in and also kept him in the good books of the increasingly brutal dictatorship of Josef Stalin as many of these ballets were little more than Soviet propaganda exercises. The subject matter ranged from romantic comedies set on collective farms, a story about the Soviet football team, to a comedy set in an industrial complex under threat of sabotage.
