Description

Explore the remarkable achievements in Soviet cinema music from 1917 to 1991 with this comprehensive study from Routledge's Contemporary Music Studies series. Despite challenging conditions, the Soviet Union produced outstanding film compositions featuring some of the world's most distinguished composers, including Sergei Prokofiev, Dmitry Shostakovich, Isaak Dunayevsky, Georgy Sviridov, Aram Khachaturian, Alfred Schnittke, Nikolai Karetnikov, Edward Artemyev, Edison Denisov, and Sofia Gubaidulina. This book examines why Soviet cinema became a unique laboratory where leading composers tested innovative concepts and themes. Unlike other nations, Soviet film music attracted top-tier classical composers who viewed cinema as an essential creative outlet. Perfect for film historians, music scholars, and anyone interested in the intersection of classical composition and cinematic art during the Soviet era.
