Tikhon Khrennikov (1913-2007) was a Russian Soviet Composer.
Having "adopted the optimistic, dramatic and unabashedly lyrical style favored by Soviet leaders", Khrennikov shot to fame in 1941, with the "Song of Moscow" ("Свинарка и пастух", meaning "Swineherd and Shepherd") from his music score for the popular Soviet film They Met in Moscow, for which he was awarded the Stalin Prize.

For a long time it was held that, thanks to Khrennikov's efforts, some Soviet composers were not arrested or prosecuted. In an interview with pianist Jascha Nemtsov on 8 November 2004 in Moscow, Khrennikov asserted that composer Mieczysław Weinberg, when arrested, had been discharged immediately because of Khrennikov's protection; according to Khrennikov the same had happened to Alexander Veprik.
In recent years, information that had been suppressed since 1948 began to be published, and documents and facts now known confirm that there were extensive prosecutions. An accusation of Zionism was often used as a weapon against people of different nationalities, faiths and opinions, such as Nikolai Roslavets. Khrennikov had to take part in repressions against Shostakovich during the enforcement of the "Party line" in music, but unlike the leadership of the Soviet Writers Union, he was never involved in political reporting on his colleagues."Struggle against formalists" was pursued in other countries too: according to György Ligeti, after Khrennikov's official visit to Budapest in 1948. According to Khrennikov : "Stalin, in my opinion, knew music better than any of us." As in classical Ancient Greece, so too in the Soviet Union music was of the greatest importance to the state.

He wrote three symphonies, four piano concertos, two violin concertos, two cello concertos, operas, operettas, ballets, chamber music, incidental music and film music
