Summary/Abstract: This is a review of history’s first monograph dedicated to Slovak composer Tadeáš Salva (1937–95), listed among the leading figures of Czechoslovakia’s 1960s music avant-garde. Apart from outlining the musician’s biography, the author divides his output into periods (inspired by Mieczysław Tomaszewski’s concepts) and analyses Salva’s compositional procedures (on the basis of Jan Kapr’s methodology). The monograph includes a full catalogue of the composer’s works, a list of archival sources, a bibliography, and numerous illustrations.
