Reading the Wiki entry on the opera, it says very little about the problems the composer experienced. When I studied music, I heard it was much, much worse – it was actually attacked in the editorial of Pravda, not only once, but twice.

Bravo, James! Kovalyov from The Nose by Gogol, and the opera by Shostakovich. Your go!

I did not know the answer yet (and I had too little time to find it).

He was.

I'm trying to remember if I've done this one before... I don't think I have!  Haha.  I'm confused.

He was born in the British Isles, yes.

He was not a kind of artist; although he is well known for many different things (all related to each other), one of which you can class as a form of art.

No but his father died in Ireland.  Not that that helps much.
