Schedule
Speaker: Zoltán Csorba, writer, journalist, editor, writer, former rock musician from Vojvodina
The rise of light music, and later beat and rock and roll, in Vojvodina took place under more favourable conditions than in the so-called Eastern bloc countries before the regime change. Yugoslavia was considered an open country, and Western cultural products, especially film and music, were allowed to arrive freely, albeit with some reservations at the beginning.
Citizens of Yugoslavia were free to travel to the West, and this
This allowed music lovers to buy records, and musicians, if they managed to collect the necessary funds, to buy quality instruments and equipment. The situation of Hungarian musicians in Vojvodina can also be described as specific in the sense that they followed and adopted Western, Yugoslav and Hungarian musical productions.
The speaker will give a taste of how the people of Vojvodina lived through this epoch.
