Zuk, Patrick - Russian Music since 1917

These essays bring into clearer focus the transformation in the study of Russian music that has occurred since glasnost. Concentrating on Russian music since 1917, the volume shows how censorship in the USSR hindered developments in scholarship, and explains some difficulties experienced by musicians and scholars in the post-soviet era.
