Why is this book called Classics on the Run? Because the masterpieces of European and Russian academic music encrypted in QR codes flicker like changing landscapes outside the window of a car or train: either fragments of Berlioz's "Fantastic" will sound, then roulades from Verdi's virtuoso aria, or even the tragic notes of Mussorgsky's "Trepak" or grotesque the wails of Desyatnikov's Sketches for Sunset... Thus, the entire history of European and Russian culture, with its main styles and ideas reflected in them, unfolds before the mind's eye of the listener in fast forward. What is not an exemplary situation for a modern person who wants to contain the maximum amount of information in the shortest possible time? In addition, the effect of listening to musical fragments using QR codes is complemented in the book by the impressions of viewing reproductions of works of fine art. Many of them were created at about the same time as music, while others are related to it in meaning, although they may belong to a completely different era. They enrich and reinforce the impression received from the text and music, making it more voluminous, as if adding to it the visual equivalent of the musical content.
