Beschreibung

A vibrant study of music and protest that focuses on the Solidarity movement in 1980s Poland, Musical Solidarities explores how and why sound mattered to the opposition to state socialism. Unfurling the rich soundscapes of political action at demonstrations, church services, meetings, and in detention, it offers a nuanced portrait of this pivotal decade of European and global history.
