Polystylistic Tendencies in Early Czech Progressive Rock
Original language description
Phenomena such as psychedelic rock and progressive rock entered the Czechscene in the last third of the 1960s. Similar to what happened abroad, these genrespopularized the idea of art rock based on the fusion of various styles of popular and classicalmusic, and possibly other artistic genres. Following the progressive rock aesthetic, severalremarkable recordings were made in the late 1960s and early 1970s, which reflected notonly the influence of foreign (especially British) musical models but also the specificities ofdomestic popular music. These included, first and foremost, the uptake of jazz elements andthe use of swing/ post- swing big bands, which, also as a result of the conservative culturalpolicy of communist Czechoslovakia, had long dominated local popular music (especiallyafter the advent of normalisation in the 1970s, somewhat anachronistically). Anotherparticularity was the integration of domestic folklore elements, which many musiciansspontaneously and in pursuit of a national form of rock had already approached in thesecond half of the 1960s, independently of the later normalisation appeals to return todomestic folk music driven by the state authorities cultural policy.
