Music

Music After the Great War, and Other Studies is a collection of essays by Carl Van Vechten, first published in 1915. The work examines the evolution of music following World War I, critiquing traditional forms and predicting a shift towards more primitive and disharmonic expressions. Van Vechten discusses influential composers such as Igor Stravinsky and critiques the decline of German music while advocating for new Russian compositions, reflecting on the cultural implications of these changes in the post-war musical landscape.
