Sommario/riassunto

This book, authored by Fritz Hennenberg, delves into the life, work, and enduring influence of Hanns Eisler, a prominent 20th-century composer and theorist. It examines Eisler's contributions to music, his political ideologies, and his collaborations with figures like Bertolt Brecht. The text explores his evolution as a composer, his exile during World War II, and his efforts to bridge music and societal critique. The book also discusses the posthumous management of Eisler's legacy, including archival efforts, publications, and performances of his works. It highlights Eisler's technical prowess, his impact on both Eastern and



Western musical traditions, and his role as a revolutionary artist. The intended audience includes music scholars, historians, and those interested in the intersection of art, politics, and society.
