2A Post-WWII Modernism – Continuities, Discontinuities, Traditions and Individualities within Greek Musical Modernism

Chair: Danae Stefanou

The subsession, ‘Post-WWII Modernism – Continuities, Discontinuities, Traditions and Individualities within Greek Musical Modernism’, explores the diverse directions that musical modernism in Greece took after World War II. In the first paper, ‘Struggling for the “New”’, through the analytical exploration of representative works, Kostas Chardas investigates stylistic interactions and the ambivalence between formal coherence and fragmentation in Yannis A. Papaioannou’ s ‘paradigmatic’ post-1950 Greek modernism. Magdalini Kalopana explores the symbiosis of diverse, avant-garde and traditional Greek elements in Dimitris Dragatakis’s works for solo instruments. Anastasios Mavroudis provides a performance analysis of Yorgos Sicilianos’s Sonata for Violin and Piano, Op. 45.
