East German playwright Heiner Müller and West German composer Heiner Goebbels collaborated to create Wolokolamsker Chaussee, a musical panorama that spans modern European history during a time of international crisis. The central question posed in the recording, which was particularly relevant in the closing years of the Cold War, remains equally pertinent in the context of the "crisis of Europe" today: Can Europe be unified?

The five acts of Wolokolamsker Chaussee encompass a diverse range of musical styles, including folk songs, hip-hop, symphonic canon, and heavy metal. Through these diverse genres, the recording explores the wounds of European history while musically striving to heal them. This extraordinary recording, which was produced in 1989/90, not only captures the sound of a historical moment but also powerfully evokes responses to it.

In addition to Wolokolamsker Chaussee, there is a related series called 33 1/3 Global, which is independent of but shares the format of the original series of short, music-based books. The focus of this series is on music from around the world, with initial volumes concentrating on Japanese, Brazilian, and European music. Future volumes will explore popular music from regions such as Australia/Oceania, Africa, the Middle East, and more.

Through the collaborative efforts of Heiner Müller and Heiner Goebbels, as well as the broader 33 1/3 Global series, we are able to gain a deeper understanding of the power of music to unite, heal, and commemorate the rich tapestry of European history.
