In this unorthodox Lacanian account of European New Music, Seth Brodsky focuses on the unlikely year 1989, when New Music hardly takes center stage. Instead one finds Rostropovich playing Bach at Checkpoint Charlie; or Bernstein changing "Joy" to "Freedom" in Beethoven's Ninth; or David Hasselhoff lip-synching "Looking for Freedom" to thousands on New Year's Eve. But if such spectacles claim to master their historical moment, New Music unconsciously takes the role of analyst. In so doing, it restages earlier scenes of modernism. As world politics witnesses a turning away from the possibility of revolution, musical modernism revolves in place, performing century-old tasks of losing, failing, and beginning again, in preparation for a revolution to come.MusicEurope20th centuryHistory and criticismMusicEurope20th centuryPhilosophy and aestheticsModernism (Music)EuropeNineteen eighty-nine, A.DMusicHistory and criticism.MusicPhilosophy and aesthetics.Modernism (Music)Nineteen eighty-nine, A.D.780.9/04LQ 80020rvkBrodsky Seth, 1246649DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK9910160347003321From 1989, or European Music and the Modernist Unconscious2890401UNINA
