Among the Stars: Simo Lazarov and the Musical Avant-Garde (Chronicles)

This is a book about the avant-garde in electronic music on the verge of two eras, several transitions, an ocean, and an Iron Curtain. For the first time, a Bulgarian edition examines the development of electronic music in Bulgaria and the work of the composer Simo Lazarov, along with the fates of the fantastic dreamers in the genre such as Léon Theremin, Luigi Russolo, Edgard Varèse, Olivier Messiaen, Pierre Schaeffer, Pierre Boulez, Luciano Berio and others.

This book is bold because it is a book about the music of the invisible, about the longing to fly and pass the space that divides you and the cosmos, the invisible and the visible, the traditional and the avant-garde ...

The book also features a music CD by Maestro Lazarov, selected specifically for this release.
