Abstract

880 Journal of the American Musicological Society Bohlman’s insistence on the plural solidarities that animated the opposition in its heyday suggests that the tensions and disagreements that so define Solidarity’s inheritors today had percolated throughout the movement’s earlier successes, if only we knew how to listen for them. “We—both his- torians and political actors ourselves—hear the loud rallying cries of change more easily than mixed messages and disinterest,” she reminds us (p. 143). Listening closely to the musical culture of 1980s Poland, Bohlman has brilliantly shown, provides a way not only of escaping the tired narrative of democratic triumphalism at the end of the Cold War, but also of appreciat- ing the fragile, shifting allegiances on which political action inevitably relies.
