Arvo Pärt Estonian classical composer.
Also a new composition in 2008 is Symphony No. 4, named “Los Angeles” and dedicated to Mikhail Khodorkovsky. It is his first symphony written for over 37 years, since 1971's Symphony No. 3. It premiered in Los Angeles, California, at the Walt Disney Concert Hall on January 10, 2009.

Mikhail Borisovich Khodorkovsky (Russian: ??????? ?????????? ?????????????; born June 26, 1963 in Moscow) is a Russian former Komsomol (Soviet youth) activist who became one of Russia's oligarchs. In 2004, Khodorkovsky was the wealthiest man in Russia, and was the 16th wealthiest man in the world, although much of his wealth evaporated because of the collapse in the value of his holding in the Russian petroleum company YUKOS.[citation needed]
On October 25, 2003, Khodorkovsky was arrested at Novosibirsk airport by the Russian prosecutor general's office on charges of fraud. Shortly thereafter, on October 31, the government under Vladimir Putin froze shares of Yukos because of tax charges. The Russian Government took further actions against Yukos, leading to a collapse in the share price. It purported to sell a major asset of Yukos in December 2004.
On May 31, 2005, Khodorkovsky was found guilty of fraud and sentenced to nine years in prison. The sentence was later reduced to 8 years. In 2003, prior to his arrest, Khodorkovsky funded several Russian parties, including Yabloko, the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, and even, allegedly, the pro-Kremlin United Russia.
In October 2005 he was moved into prison camp number 13 in the city of Krasnokamensk, Zabaykalsky Krai.

What has this to do with Pärt 's music?

Is that you again, Maxim de la Trine? Or is it Peter or Siil? Whoever it is; what are you trying to accomplish here?

Social embarrassments is a term that can apply also to those who have no idea that Pärt dedicated his most recent Symphony to Khodorkovsky... Look into these things, before reacting!
