Overview

English summary: This publication collates contributions from the international symposium Saved From Oblivion. Symphonic Music by Aleksandr Veprik. Together with a CD recording it intends to call back into general consciousness the music of the Jewish composer Aleksandr Veprik, who in the 1920s was considered one of the greatest compositional hopes of the Soviet Union, yet was subsequently broken by this very state. The motivation for the project was the great emotional power of Veprik's expressive music, which immediately touches the hearts of both listeners and performers. The contributions to this book include biographical and analytical aspects, as well as a source edition of Veprik's letters from his trip to Europe in 1927. The complete collection is published here for the first time. German description: Der Band vereint die Beitrage des internationalen Symposiums Dem Vergessen entrissen. Symphonische Musik von Alexander Weprik. Er soll, zusammen mit einer CD-Aufnahme, dazu beitragen, die Musik des judischen Komponisten Alexander Weprik, der in den 1920er-Jahren als eine der grossten Hoffnungen der Sowjetunion galt und anschliessend durch eben diesen Staat gebrochen wurde, wieder in das allgemeine Bewusstsein zuruckzuholen. Der Beweggrund fur das Projekt war die grosse emotionale Kraft von Wepriks beeindruckender Musik, welche die Herzen der Zuhorenden wie der Ausubenden direkt anzusprechen vermag. Die Beitrage des Bandes behandeln biographische und musikanalytische Aspekte, hinzu kommt eine Quellenedition der Briefe Wepriks von seiner Reise nach Europa im Jahr 1927, die hier zum ersten Mal vollstandig publiziert werden.
