Russian Music at Home and Abroad

Richard Taruskin
This new collection views Russian music through the Greek triad ofthe Good, the True, and the Beautiful, to investigatehow the idea of nation embeds itself in the public discourse about music and other arts with results at times invigorating, at times corrupting. 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. 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.
