  Article:   BOOK REVIEW - CONSIDERATIONS ABOUT A FUNDAMENTAL BOOK OF ROMANIAN MUSICOLOGY.

Authors:  OLEG GARAZ.
 
       
         
  Abstract:  Written on commission and published in 1997, awarded with the prize for musicology by the Romanian Union of Composers and Musicologists in 1999, this book, entitled Orientări, direcții, curente ale muzicii românești din a doua jumătate a secolului XX [Orientations, Directions, Currents in Late Twentieth Century Romanian Music] (Bucharest: Editura Muzicală) by Irinel Anghel, passed almost unnoticed by the public at the end of the last century. It was only in the first decade of this century that this text started to gradually, albeit firmly reveal its force and pertinence as a necessary musicological conceptual model, even despite the totally absent promotion, group partisanship, or any “maternal” involvement on the part of its author. And the text is gaining even more visibility despite being conceived as a mini-encyclopaedia (see the Table of Contents) or as a quasi-dictionary (see the Index of this edition), both based on a detailed and compelling analytical interpretation, attuned to the realities of the Romanian cultural and compositional landscape.
