The Suite for Jazz Orchestra No. 2 is a suite by Dmitri Shostakovich. It was written in 1938 for the newly founded State Jazz Orchestra of Victor Knushevitsky. The score was lost during World War II, but a piano score of the work was rediscovered in 1999 by Manashir Yakubov.
Until recently, another eight-movement Suite by Shostakovich had been misidentified and recorded as the second Jazz Suite. This work is now correctly known as the Suite for Variety Orchestra (post-1956), from which the “Waltz No. 2” was made famous by the soundtrack to Stanley Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut, and which now seems irrevocably erroneously associated with the Jazz Suite No. 2.
