Summary:

This volume is the first collection of essays in English devoted to the work of the outstanding Yugoslavian composer Rudolf Bruči. It approaches Bruči's work from a remarkably broad number of angles, and the chapters underline that fact that his work was multivalent. The book emphasizes his wider relevance in the ever-expanding field of musicology dealing with the fascinatingly diverse outputs produced in the Balkans in general, but reminds us of the considerable international reputation that the composer enjoyed far beyond the borders of the former Yugoslavia.Bruči's creative mind was extraordinarily wide-ranging, and this text also explores his engagement with the wider culture around him. In the context of post-war Yugoslavia, an artist was also a cultural worker, expected to carry out many duties, and contribute to the advancement of the country's self-governing socialist society.
