Book Synopsis Music in the Culture of Polish Galicia, 1772-1914 by : Jolanta T. Pekacz
Book excerpt: "An analysis of the conditions of Galician society - its social structure and dynamics, political and economic status, and cultural level and aspirations - is followed by chapters on music as a commercial pursuit, as civic and moral pedagogy, as an expression of cultural identity, as communal experience, as status symbol, and as an expression of political attitudes of the Galicians. These themes illustrate the cultural use of music in Galician schools, theaters, musical societies, choirs, public concerts, and homes.".
