Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The premiere of Erik Satie's Parade in May 1917 marked the emergence of a new musical avant-garde in Paris. To many young artists Parade exemplified a wish to escape Symbolist purity and fuse 'art' with everyday life--a rallying cry quickly adopted by Jean Cocteau in his celebrated pamphlet on new French music, The Cock And The Harlequin, in 1918.
