Peter Katina: Hudba inak

Description

The book is only in Slovak language

~~~~~~~~~~

The book Hudba inak (Something Else about the Music) in a lightweight, popular form represents a platform that combines essential information from the world of classical music, jazz and minor genres with interesting facts, new contexts and up-to-date details that did not fit into the music history books. These are stories of forbidden music in different periods of history, the fate of unknown, forgotten and rediscovered compositions, yet the ways in which music can be recycled for further use, but also the remarkable lives of composers and performers that have not been well-known so far. It brings interesting hypotheses about the relationship of famous celebrities to music, focusing on the music of exotic geographical areas and exploring how the environment affects the music that originated there. The book refers to the music excerpts from the recordings performed by world-renowned soloists and ensembles.
