Such Freedom, If Only Musical: Unofficial Soviet Music During the Thaw
ISBN: 9780195341935 / Angielski / Twarda / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Following Stalin's death in 1953, during the period now known as the Thaw, Nikita Khrushchev opened up greater freedoms in cultural and intellectual life. A broad group of intellectuals and artists in Soviet Russia were able to take advantage of this, and in no realm of the arts was this perhaps more true than in music.

In the 1960s,...
