This thesis uses East is Red as a window through which to look at Cultural Revolution politics and culture. By exploring the relationship between politics and music, and by taking into account the history of revolutionary music in China, it demonstrates how East is Red is both a textual and musical example of how the Cultural Revolution was both a result of and a departure from the Communist Revolution leading up to it.
