Abstract
This chapter examines the problematic attempts to evolve a new Soviet musical culture on the basis of extant musical traditions, and the debates concerning how musical material of earlier periods could be transformed in a way that would render it suitable for use by Soviet composers. Musical ‘speech’ was regarded as an analogue of verbal communication and subjected to philological ‘decoding’ in quest for a new kind of musical rhetoric. The chapter concludes by examining Soviet debates about the possibility of ‘translating’ between musical words into words, and what this reveals about the constructs of Soviet identity that were in the process of formation at the period.
