This project, the Jean Monnet module, is supported by Erasmus+ and includes teaching on EU matters in the field of arts, especially music and musicology, as well as research, conducted in order to support teaching activities. The aims of our project are to raise awareness about the importance of crossing cultural and musical boundaries in the European con- text, to promote understanding of each individual European musical culture as a product of the intercultural dialogue and part of the greater European culture and to identify and contextualize dynamic issues of musical identities, both from pedagogical and research perspectives. “Europeanization” of the curricula at the Department of Musicology focuses Europe-related identity of the chosen topics aiming to encourage the future professional activities of students and their aca- demic dialogue with their European colleagues. This volume focuses on relationships between identity and music in Europe from different angles, taking into account two basic categories: identities in music and music in identities. The diversity of issues and approaches may seem hetero- geneous at the first sight, but there are similarities, on different levels, that unite the chapters together. As a whole, this book contains three sections, each divided into multiple chapters. The first section, “Music and Identity: Defining ‘Self’ and ‘Other’”, provides chapters on identity construction in different historical and geographical contexts, from the Enlightenment to the present, and from the East to the West of Europe. The second section “Unity in Diversity” deals with the dis- course of popular music in Europe, while the third section “(Re)conceptualizing Approaches to Music and ‘Europness’” encompases chapters on various topics related to complex and changing concepts of identity, whether about individual composers, issues of style or musical work itself. The first section begins with Rūta Stanevičiūtė’s chapter “The Velvet Curtain. European Identities and Lithuanian Musical Imagination in the Post-Communist Era”. Inspired by many works composed by Lithuanian authors dedicated to the theme of Europe, she explores the Post-Cold War period and the “formation of the images of Europe in the… Lithuanian cultural tradition and their transforma- tion in the music works of Lithuanian composers at the turn of the 21st century.” Małgorzata Janicka-Słysz in her chapter “Karol Szymanowski and His Concept of 8 Introduction Modern Music Culture” analyses Karol Szymanowski’s texts and his attitudes to culture, “modern music”, with attention to his opinions on relationships between Polish and European music. Paulo F. de Castro, in “From ‘Good Other’ to ‘Ideal Self’: Images of Russian Otherness in France and the Iberian Peninsula at the Turn of the 20th Century” deals with representations of Russian otherness in France and the Iberian Peninsula at the turn of the 20th century in order to show that the “identity one adopts as one’s own is not always, or not necessarily, identical with the identity one chooses to present to the outside world; and that both identities – designed for internal and external consumption, as it were – may fail to agree with the outsider’s perception of one’s identity.” The next chapter, Ivana Perković’s “Ambiguity, Mimicry and War: Alla Turca in Contredanse K 535 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart” explores Mozart’s Contredanse K 535 La Battaille, known also as The Siege of Belgrade, from the perspective of postcolonial and Balkan studies. Along with theories of Bhabha and Todorova, Mozart’s work is analyzed through the prism of the Austro-Turkish War and Viennese balls during carnival season. The last chapter in this section, Lina Navickaitė-Martinelli’s “Defining Identity: In Quest of ‘Lithuanianness’ in Piano Performance Art”, focuses on the concept and the practice of a ‘school’, as applied to the art of music performance, with a particular focus on the idea of a national school. She defines the common features valued in performance practice of Lithuanian pianists, such as philosophical in- sights, meditation and the importance of profound reflections. Popular music, as music not belonging to the ‘classical’ or ‘folk’ concepts, ap- peared in Europe since the early decades of the Nineteenth century, and interrela- tions among local styles and genres (chanson, fado, canzone, flamenco, music hall, Schlager, etc.) have been operating since then, forming the basic layers of a Euro- pean popular culture, which has accompanied the history of our continent, quite often going across political barriers. This is the main subject of Franco Fabbri’s “Influence, imitation, and the reshaping of identities in European popular music”, which opens a section focused on popular music, from different methodological perspectives. Vesna Mikić, for her “Rock me Lane moje – European Identifications of Transitory Yugoslav/West Balkans’ Identities at the Eurovision Song Contest”, claims an approach based on “cultural theory (Hall), as well as Gerard Delanty’s critical combination of historical sociology and political theory, here appropri- ated by (cultural) musicology”. Saskia Jaszoltowski, in “Memory, Spectacle, and the Image of Songs”, follows a socio-musicological approach, integrating elements of (above all) harmonic analysis into a ‘classic’ sociological and media studies frame- work. Kaire Maimets, in “The Estonian Singing Revolution: Musematic Insights”, bases her analysis on the semio-musicological method developed by Philip Tagg
