Following World War I, a number of compositions emerged that addressed the phenomenon of the modern city by translating the clamorous sounds of urban surroundings and artistically expressing them through the medium of music. Because the rendering of poetic and esoteric moods unrelated to practical life was widely regarded as outmoded, musical preoccupation with modern architecture was primarily concerned with social aspects. such as people's circumstances, their emotional attachment to bygone conditions, and the search for orientation in a technologically dominated environment There are clear parallels with contemporary architectural debates in which the tension between modernism and traditionalism is also prominent. This article compares various country-specific concepts of musical urbanism, which manifests itself in compositional reflections on various aspects of modern urban architecture and urban life.
