Dyskretny urok muzycznej moderny (The discreet charm of musical modernity)
By Aleksander Filipowski, pp 66-76


Automatic translation: Frank Zappa's musical universe is a true melting pot of style, convention and aesthetics. Eclecticism was not only an immanent feature of his work, but also one of the determinants of his artistic strategy. This time, however, we will not explore the specificity of references to various types of popular music and jazz. We will focus fully on Zappa's various connections with twentieth-century modernity. We will take a closer look at what styles, compositional techniques and, finally, the creators influenced the development of his sound language. We are entering a difficult terrain. Cavernous discography, multiple tracks and a range of references – all this makes the topic very broad. However, it is worth paying attention to it, because "serious" explorations of Zappa are something unique in the rock world.
