Produktinformationen "Songs of the Northern Lights"
"Songs of the Northern Lights" guides readers into a musical exploration of the rich Baltic State musical environment. Through this book, readers discover how music functions as both a cultural foundation and an instrument of resistance in the historical contexts of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. This book traces Baltic music from its prehistoric forest and shoreline rituals to its integration with Christian spirituality. Through this book, you will understand how traditional songs developed into instruments of rebellion against foreign occupations before leading to the historic Singing Revolution that achieved independence. The book examines how Baltic music shapes global music scenes by exploring the diaspora's efforts to keep traditions alive with their music and how digital platforms help restart communities' connection to their folk heritage. You can help us celebrate the everlasting spirit of Baltic music while understanding its power to define both the heritage and destiny of the Baltic region.
