In our divided, post-Cold War, and now post-9/11 world, Russian music, formerly a quiet corner on the margins of musicology, has become a site of noisy contention. Richard Taruskin assesses the political and cultural stakes that attach to it in the era of Pussy Riot and renewed international tensions, before turning to individual cases from the nineteenth century to the present. Much of the volume is devoted to the resolutely cosmopolitan but inveterately Russian Igor Stravinsky, one of the major forces in the music of the twentieth century and subject of particular interest to composers and music theorists all over the world. Taruskin here revisits him for the first time since the 1990s, when everything changed for Russia and its cultural products. Other essays are devoted to the cultural and social policies of the Soviet Union and their effect on the music produced there as those policies swung away from Communist internationalism to traditional Russian nationalism; to the musicians of the Russian postrevolutionary diaspora; and to the tension between the compelling artistic quality of works such as Stravinsky's Sacre du Printemps or Prokofieff's Zdravitsa and the antihumanistic or totalitarian messages they convey. Russian Music at Home and Abroad addresses these concerns in a personal and critical way, characteristically demonstrating Taruskin's authority and ability to bring living history out of the shadows."--Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Stravinsky, Igor, $d 1882-1971 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 17 $a Stravinsky, Igor, $d 1882-1971. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00038169 650 0 $a Music $z Russia $x History and criticism. 650 7 $a Music. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01030269 651 7 $a Russia. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01207312 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 $i Online version: $a Taruskin, Richard, author. $t Russian music at home and abroad. $d Oakland, California : University of California Press, [2016] $z 9780520963153 $w (DLC) 2016007233 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211033016.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20161103024501.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BABDD0A6A18B11E6AED112AEDAD10320 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
