The symphony was conceived as a popular piece and proved an instant success in Russia—his greatest, in fact, since the Leningrad Symphony fifteen years earlier. The work's popular success, as well as its earning him a Lenin Prize in April 1958, marked the composer's formal rehabilitation from the Zhdanov Doctrine of 1948.
A month after the composer had received the Lenin Prize, a Central Committee resolution "correcting the errors" of the 1948 decree restored all those affected by it to official favor, blaming their treatment on "J.V. Stalin's subjective attitude to certain works of art and the very adverse influence exercised on Stalin by Molotov, Malenkov and Beria."
Structure
The symphony has four movements played without break, and lasts approximately one hour.
The symphony (his opus 34) was begun three years after his 10th symphony was completed, a symphonic pause long for him. The style of this symphony is entirely different from that of its predecessor, which was still a modern-sounding work. Symphony no. 11 sounds much more conservative. That is probably a consequence of the changing art climate in the Soviet Union.
Too modern art began to be considered "formalistic", and artists were brought together under one aegis. Another cause is possible according to some Soviet musicologists - that Myaskovsky and others had to leave the poorly functioning Association for Contemporary Music. The work's premiere was two years after completion, also. Myaskovsky had by then already tinkered with/revised the symphony. A musical pointer in this symphony is two fragments in movement 2, where woodwinds turn and turn again around a fugal motif.
Michael Haydn's Symphony No. 11 in B-flat major, Perger 9, Sherman 11, MH 82 and 184, was written in Salzburg in 1766. Hans Gál attributed this work to Joseph Haydn, but he was not the first to do so (Hoboken's catalog lists this as the second symphony in B-flat major so attributed).
Scored for 2 oboes, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, and strings. In four movements:

Shostakovich Symphony No 11 "1905" - 9th January 'Attack' & 'Tocsin' Finale - Søndergård conducts
These brief excerpts are two of the most exciting parts of Shostakovich's 11th Symphony, depicting events of the Russian Revolution in 1905. On 9th January, the St. Petersburg populace marched towards the Tsar's Winter Palace in order to present a petition protesting at the harshness of daily life. As the crowd entered the square, the Palace guards opened fire on hundreds of innocent men, women and children, in a sequence graphically depicted by Shostakovich on the side-drum led percussion section. The second excerpt is the end of the symphony's finale, a 'Tocsin' with its tolling of huge alarm bells and more terrifying scoring for the percussion section. These two excerpts come from the stunning complete performance given by the BBC National Orchestra of Wales, conductor Thomas Søndergård...
