Capter L'essence Du Spectacle
Le défi du patrimoine immatériel est de capturer l'essence du spectacle : l'idée de « capture » a cela d'intéressant qu'elle suppose que les professionnels impliqués dans la SIBMAS soient comme des chasseurs, sur la piste, de toutes sortes de façons, afin de coincer et de recueillir un petit quelque chose d'éphémère, qui en vaut la peine, et qui nous en apprend sur nous-mêmes et sur notre monde. Certains chasseurs se servent des bases de données, d'autres des écrits ou des images - mais tous partagent un même objectif : ne pas laisser se perdre un moment spécial, magique, que seule la vie du spectacle peut générer. The challenge of intangible heritage is to capture the esse...
Richard Strauss. Une Symphonie Alpestre
Consacré au manuscrit autographe d?Une symphonie alpestre, de Richard Strauss (1864-1949), ce volume revient sur les circonstances dans lesquelles le manuscrit du dernier grand poème symphonique du compositeur allemand est entré, au lendemain du second conflit mondial, dans les collections nationales françaises. Il explique également la genèse complexe de cette œuvre, conçue en plusieurs phases, entre 1899 et 1915, et s?attache à mettre en évidence les différentes dimensions (philosophique, esthétique et autobiographique) de l?ouvrage, qui ne doit pas être réduit à un voyage pittoresque, avec son catalogue d?évocations musicales, virtuoses pour les uns, vulgaires pour les aut...
Chagall ceiling at the Opéra Garnier
On the fiftieth anniversary of the new ceiling painted by Chagall for the Paris Opéra in 1964, this richly illustrated volume tells the story behind the creation of a remarkable composition. An introduction sets the work in its context, and is followed by an account of the controversy that that raged for years around this startling commission by André Malraux, Minister for Cultural Affairs. A discussion of Chagall's other large-scale work in a variety of media, in both France and America, sets the great ceiling composition in the context of the artist's oeuvre, and reveals it as the culmination of his monumental work. Finally, a thematic description of the work explores its shimmering palette and its composition based on five 'petals': white for Rameau and Debussy; red for Ravel and Stravinsky; yellow for Tchaikovsky and Adam; blue for Mussorgsky and Mozart; and green for Wagner and Berlioz, with Gluck, Beethoven, Verdi and Bizet placed in the central 'sun'. A detailed table of illustrations and bibliography complete this sumptuous and scholarly exploration of a celebrated masterpiece. Text in English and French.

Claiming Wagner for France
"This book examines the shifting attitudes toward Wagner reflected in the Parisian press during the period of the Third Reich. Paradoxically, during one of the darkest periods of French history, as the German threat grew more tangible and then manifested in the Nazi occupation of France, Parisians chose to see in Wagner a universality that transcended his Germanness. As Franco-German diplomatic relations gradually worsened in the 1930s, Wagner became an increasingly integral part of French musical culture. Parisians were unwilling to surrender Wagner to German exclusivist claims. In previous decades the French had used Wagner to symbolize a diverse array of political arguments and positions,...
The Oxford Handbook of Dance and Politics
The Oxford Handbook of Dance and Politics presents cutting edge research investigating not only how dance achieves its politics, but also how notions of the political are themselves expanded when viewed from the perspective of dance.

Du document à l'utilisateur/from Document to User
C'est un défi de taille, pour les archivistes, les bibliothécaires, les muséologues ou les documentalistes spécialisés, de conserver la mémoire et la trace du spectacle vivant, dans une société où les techniques évoluent sans cesse. Les techniques d'enregistrement audiovisuel et les supports pour conserver les images se sont modifiés. La mise en valeur de nouveaux médias est une gageure dans la conception des expositions. Enfin, les pratiques de recherche et l'essor conjoint des bases de données ont modifié la donne. Tels sont les nombreux sujets de réflexion qui se sont offerts aux membres de la SIBMAS (Société internationale des bibliothèques et musées des arts du specta...
The Fascist Turn in the Dance of Serge Lifar
"This book is an examination of neoclassical ballet initially in the French context before and after World War I (circa 1905-1944) with close attention to dancer and choreographer Serge Lifar. Since the critical discourses I analyze indulge in flights of poetic fancy I distinguish in my discussion of this material between the Lifar-image (the dancer on stage and object of discussion by critics), the Lifar-discourse (the writings on Lifar as well as his own discourse), and the Lifar-person (the historical actor). This topic is further developed in the final chapter into a discussion of the so-called Baroque dance both as a historical object and as a motif of contemporary experimentation as it...
