French and Soviet Musical Diplomacies in Post-War Austria,
1945-1955 investigates how promoting 'national' music and musicians
was used as an important asset by France and the USSR in post-Nazi
Austria, covering music's role in international relations at
various levels, within changing power frameworks. Bridging
international relations, musical sociology, media studies, and Cold
War history, four incisive chapters examine the crossroads of
Soviet, French, and Austrian cultural politics and
discourse-building, presented in two parts - institutions of
musical diplomacy: Soviet and French cultural diplomats in
comparison; sounds of music coming to Austria: Soviet and French
musicians on tour. Using a communication- and media-oriented
approach, this study casts new light, firstly, on the
interpretative power of 'receiving' publics and, secondly, on the
role of cultural transmitters at different levels. This is a
valuable study for those specialising in Russian and East European
music and music and politics. It will also appeal to cultural
historians and all those interested in the intersections between
music, international relations, and Cold War history.
