AB  - Between the two World Wars, in Belgrade and Serbia, seven musical jour­
nals were published: “Musical Gazette” (1922), “Music” (1928–1929), “Herald 
of the Musical Society Stanković” (1928–1934, 1938–1941; renamed to “Mu­
sical Herald” in january 1931), “Sound” (1932–1936), “Journal of The South 
Slav Choral Union” (1935–1936, 1938), “Slavic Music” (1939–1941) and “Music 
Review” (1940). The influence of marxism can be observed in “Musical Her­
ald” (in the series from 1938), “Sound” and “Slavic Music”.
A Marxist influence is obvious through indications of determinism. Name­
ly, some writers (Dragutin Čolić) observed elements of musical art and its 
history as (indirect) consequences of sociopolitical and economic process­
es. Still, journals published articles of domestic and foreign authors who in­
terpreted the relation between music, society and economy in a much more 
moderate and subtle manner (D.Cvetko, A.Schering).
Editors and associates of these journals also had proscriptive ambitions – 
they recommended and even determined regulations for composers about 
what kind of music to write according to social goals and needs. According 
to tendencies in Marxism, there was a follow up of musical work in the So­
viet Union. Editors tried not to be one-sided. There were writings about the 
USSR by left orientated associates as much as emigrants from that country, 
and articles of Soviet authors were translated. Also, there were critical tones 
about musical development in the first country of socialism. 
Serbian musical periodicals recognized the enormous threat from fascism. 
Also, there were articles about influence of Nazi ideology and dictatorship 
on musical prospects in Germany. Since Germany annexed Sudetenland 
in 1938, “Musical Herald” expressed support to musicians and people of 
that friendly country by devoting the October and November 1938 issue to 
Czechoslovak music, along with an appropriate introduction by the editor, 
Stana Đurić-Klajn.
