 Re: Russian Composers

"I often confuse (not sure why) Stravinsky and Shostakovic. [sic] Probably because their names both begin with S."

Not in Russian they don't.

Stravinsky begins with an S, which in the Russian alphabet looks like our letter C. (Стравинский)

Shostakovich begins with an Sh, which in the Russian alphabet is a single letter, and looks roughly like a sort of squared-off W. (Шостакович)

If you are making a film about Russia, maybe you should know that?
