This book explores the veiled political dynamic in Soviet era music. In the Soviet government’s desire to control music (and all of the arts) this examination begins with what the Soviet government expected of composers and the measures it took to inform artists if they were representing the State correctly or were straying from approved policies. Both the overt and covert tools used to pursue this control including censorship, denunciation and criticism will be examined along with musical examples, both programme and symphonic. And lastly, a look at the profound impact this political dynamic had on Soviet era music as a whole will be taken.
