Dead Heroes and Living Saints: Orthodoxy
Dead Heroes and Living Saints: Orthodoxy, Nationalism, and Militarism in Contemporary Russia and Cyprus By Victoria Fomina Submitted to Central European University Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisors: Professor Vlad Naumescu Professor Dorit Geva CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2019 Budapest, Hungary Statement I hereby declare that this dissertation contains no materials accepted for any other degrees in any other institutions and no materials previously written and / or published by any other person, except where appropriate acknowledgement is made in the form of bibliographical reference. Victoria Fomina Budapest, August 16, 2019 CEU eTD Collection i Abstract This dissertation explores commemorative practices in contemporary Russia and Cyprus focusing on the role heroic and martyrical images play in the recent surge of nationalist movements in Orthodox countries. It follows two cases of collective mobilization around martyr figures – the cult of the Russian soldier Evgenii Rodionov beheaded in Chechen captivity in 1996, and two Greek Cypriot protesters, Anastasios Isaak and Solomos Solomou, killed as a result of clashes between Greek and Turkish Cypriot protesters during a 1996 anti- occupation rally. Two decades after the tragic incidents, memorial events organized for Rodionov and Isaak and Solomou continue to attract thousands of people and only seem to grow in scale, turning their cults into a platform for the production and dissemination of competing visions of morality and social order. This dissertation shows how martyr figures are mobilized in Russia and Cyprus to articulate a conservative moral project built around nationalism, militarized patriotism, and Orthodox spirituality. -
Kiosk Wars/CD Review
December 1, 2010 Hi John- Here are the CD reviews for the Januaary 2011 issue. I'll be by your office later today to give you the CD covers for scanning. Sending file as back up. Talk soon, Perri Kiosk Wars: The Big Guns Battle for Minimarket Shelf Space Perri Pagonis [email protected] The music industry has gone through such dramatic changes in the past twenty years, that it’s hard to keep track of what’s happening with the record companies at any given moment. Vinyl records, although widely accepted by audiophiles as the most satisfying way to hear recorded music, is for collectors and DJs only. CDs are still the storage medium being most widely manufactured and distributed, however, they are becoming more technologically passé on a daily basis. Downloading digital music off of the Internet in MP3 and other forms is the current youth rage, but kids seem to download scads of stuff on a whim, often times an artist’s entire oeuvre in one fell swoop, and then forget to listen to it. The MySpace phenomenon on the web has made any band’s music, I mean any band’s music, from Micronesian punk rock goofball stuff to selected arias from monumental Italian opera stars, available to download into your computer’s hard disk in seconds. As the age of global stadium stars has dwindled down to a mere handful of selected acts: Rolling Stones, Madonna, U2, AC/DC, Metallica etc, so too has the Greek music scene splintered into a few revered giants and hordes of mewling newbies. -

Composer, Pianist, Woman
Rena Kyriakou (1917-1994): Composer, Pianist, Woman Athina Fytika Ionian University (Corfu) [email protected] The career of Greek pianist and composer, Rena Kyriakou (1917-1994), exemplifies the obstacles placed before foreign-trained women musicians who aspired to be taken seriously as composers in twentieth-century Greece. By all accounts Kyriakou was a remarkable musician who demonstrated an early talent for both composing and playing the piano. Nevertheless, by her late twenties she decided to forego her promising future as a composer and instead limit herself to the career of a performing virtuoso. The pivotal moment seems to have been the poor reception of her First Piano Concert, which she premiered in Athens in 1943.1 Considering all her efforts to become a composer and all she had achieved toward that end, her decision to stop composing after the 1943 concerto performance demands closer scrutiny. Clearly, one must be careful when attributing motivations to any historical figure. Nonetheless, in Kyriakou’s case considerable evidence suggests that prevailing social and aesthetic prejudices against women and certain kinds of foreign influence, expressed by a hostile critical press, led her to her reluctant decision to abandon composition. Kyriakou’s musical talents were apparent from an early age. In 1923, at age six, she performed her premier recital at the Athens Parnassos Hall, drawing the infatuation of the Greek press. She also attracted the intense interest of Elena Venizelou, wife of the Greek prime minister, who sponsored Kyriakou’s subsequent studies in Europe. This initially involved a 1925 visit to Paris, where, despite having no formal musical training, she was permitted to present her own compositions to Vincent d’Indy and Albert Roussel, both of whom praised the eight-year- old’s innate talent.2 Kyriakou continued her youthful studies in Vienna with Paul Weingarten (piano) and Richard Stöhr (composition), eventually returning to Paris to enter the Paris Conservatoire in 1930, at age thirteen. -

Giorgos Sakallieros* Aristotle University of Th essaloniki School of Music Studies THE SYMPHONIC CONCERTO FOR PIANO AND ORCHESTRA (1935) BY MANOLIS KALOMIRIS: REAFFIRMING THE NATIONAL-IDEAL TOPOS THROUGH THE (OLD) WESTERN CANON1 Abstract: Manolis Kalomiris’s Symphonic Concerto for piano and orchestra (1935) consolidates the virtuosic piano performance and the complexity of romantic sym- phonic texture with the appearance of authentic Greek folk material, its westernized treatments, and symbolic self-references arising from the Greek National School prin- ciples. The work is critically examined through historical and analytical perspectives, aiming at a better understanding of the composer’s aspirations expressing the indige- nous artistic, cultural and political circumstances of the period when it was completed. Examples of the relative Greek and international “concertante” repertoire, from the late 19th to the mid-20th century, are also taken into comparative consideration. Keywords: Greek art music, piano concerto typology, modality, folk song, texture, variation, fugue, national identity, self-referential portrayal. Th e cultivation of instrumental solo concerto was sporadic in Greek art mu- sic during the fi rst half of the 20th century, either in or beyond nationalistic * Author contact information: [email protected] 1 An initial version of this paper, in Greek, was presented at the musicological sympo- sium “Manolis Kalomiris and the Greek National School of Music” as part of the 14th Hellenic Music Festival (Hellēnikes Mousikes Giortes), Music Library of Greece, Athens, 1-2 June 2018.
