Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Toward a Materialist Conception of Music History: With Stephan Hammel (Part II of II)
Q: What would it even mean for historical materialism to serve as a methodological foundation for music history?

Q: Why should a socialist care about the history of music?
