Biografia unui muzician observată prin lupa Securității comuniste – Nicolae Brânzeu
The biography of a musician observed through the lens of the communist security – Nicolae Brânzeu

Summary/Abstract: In Romania, the composer Nicolae Brânzeu has managed to arouse musical interest in the last decade, but the artist's biography and his contribution to the consolidation of Romanian music could only be fully known if an analysis was made from the perspective of communist security. The research is based on a study of the information on Nicolae Brânzeu, which is contained in four volumes compiled by the authorities between 1943 and 1983. It comprises 1,593 pages of official documents, investigations, resolutions and action plans, newspaper articles, telephone conversations, information notes given by collaborators or active agents. The research perspective reveals both the stigmatization of the composer and a spectacle of outraged humanity.
