His graduation piece was also his breakthrough composition, 1926's First Symphony.
He had a contentious relationship with the Soviet government, never being as passionate about Marxism as they would have preferred and often protesting the Stalin regime. However, this never hindered his piano playing or his compositions.

He was heavily influenced by Igor Stravinsky and Sergei Prokofiev early on, before transitioning to a personally developed Hybrid style with "Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District" from 1934.
