Paper wraps. Condizione: Good+. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fair. 1st. Praha., Ceskomoravský Kompas., 1940. 8vo. Important book about the avant-garde theatre. First edition. 88 pp. Paper wraps with a photograph of a pierrot, artist unknown. Burian was a Composer, writer, actor, singer, theatre and film director, theoretician, politician, bon vivant, prisoner, communist in uniform. He was one of the first in Czech culture to pursue the idea of a certain kind of gesamtkunstwerk, an approach that was later to be taken up in Laterna magica (Black Theatre), or Czech experimental film, for example. Burian's music is almost entirely forgotten in this country today, although it deserves to be valued in the context of the international avant garde between the wars. His purely musical output was vast (perhaps 200 opuses--several operas, a series of orchestral works, many chamber pieces, dozens of stage and film compositions). EF Burian was also involved with the Liberated Theatre of Voskovec and Werich, wrote the first Czech book on jazz in 1928, and set up a then ground-breaking vocal ensemble called Voiceband, which combined the spoken word with song. During World War II he was interned in a concentration camp; like many of his generation, his politics turned left after the war.
