Research Abstract |
This study has examined the impact of the cold war and its derived ideology (political and non-political) on the creation and reception (ie. the historiography) of music, through the case study of the Congress for Cultural Freedom and its music-related events. Close examination of various documents, preliminary and otherwise, has revealed that the activities of the Congress were only one manifestation of the complex and often contradictory stance taken by many composers and musicians in the west toward what creative "freedom" would amount to on the face of the increasing antagonism between the US-led Western allies and the Soviet and its satellite states.
