Songs for Fat People: Affect, Emotion, and Celebrity in the Russian Popular Song, 1900-1955
David MacFadyen
During this period estrada - which includes comedy, literary readings, and circus arts as well as popular song - saw the birth of tangos, foxtrots, waltzes, and big bands. MacFadyen shows how a nomadic art form survived the pressures of business before the 1917 Revolution and those of politics afterwards.
