Gregor Tassie studies the lives, work, and legacy of three musicians who were trail-blazers in the Soviet avant-garde and led modernist music in the 1920s. Mosolov, Popov, and Roslavets were popular composers who have been unfortunately forgotten. This book is the first study in English of their legacy.
