On the Issue of Progressive Rock and the Paradox of Popular Serious Art
Original language description
Progressive rock of the 1970s represents a unique development in modern music of the twentieth century. It was a movement which introduced the atypical association of a highly sophisticated and complicated means of expression, primarily derived from the area of so-called serious art, with a wide popularity bordering almost on fashion. Bill Martin, the American Marxist philosopher and social theorist, aptly named this remarkable phenomenon progressive rock, based on the Anglo-American rock experimentalism of the second half of the 1960s. This became a global artistic trend over the following decade, using the paradoxical term “popular avant-garde.” The study presents the broader cultural context of the existence of the progressive rock genre. Theories on the given topic by Czech popular music scholars are also taken into account.
