| Publisher Description: Focusing on Germany's post-Soviet emigrant community and their "Russendisko," this volume portrays St. Petersburg's vibrant music scene as an electrifying platform for exchange. Its findings illuminate Soviet and post-Soviet popular music history and Russia's relationship with the Ukraine. The text not only enables a deeper understanding of popular music's role in society but also a better comprehension of cultural processes since the fall of the Soviet Union. |
