Métis Music
What makes music Métis, and who gets to decide? Complex dynamics of recognition, non-recognition, and erasure have played out over a history of Métis music-making, from the Red River Resistance all the way to the present day. Monique Giroux argues that Métis music reflects broader social relationships, in particular the politics of recognition. Drawing on newspaper articles, archival documents, interviews with Métis and non-Métis musicians, and over a decade of research at cultural festivals, she charts a history of reframings: a changing but problematic relationship whereby settlers define the boundaries of acceptance to assert control over Métis identity and culture. Complicating thi...
Ta photo dans ma chambre
Passionnés de chanson, Monique Giroux et Jean-Christophe Laurence ont ouvert le coffre aux trésors des archives photos de LA PRESSE. Ils ont choisi une centaine de clichés d'artistes dans des situations improbables ou quotidiennes: Félix en maillot de bain, Offenbach à l'Oratoire, Louvain en chaussettes, Aznavour dans le métro, Marie King dans sa cuisine ou Marie Laforêt à vélo dans Hochelaga! Pour accompagner ces clichés pour la plupart inédits, Monique Giroux a signé des textes vifs et touchants où elle partage réflexions, souvenirs et anecdotes, et Jean-Christophe Laurence nous livre des extraits d'articles d'époque et les commentaires amusés de plusieurs des têtes d'affiche qui sont en vedette ici. TA PHOTO DANS MA CHAMBRE rend hommage aux artistes qui nous enchantent et nous ont enchantés ainsi qu'aux photographes qui les ont si joliment mis en images. Un livre à lire le sourire aux lèvres.

The Routledge Companion to Ethics and Research in Ethnomusicology is an in-depth survey of the moral challenges and imperatives of conducting research on people making music. It focuses on fundamental and compelling ethical questions that have challenged and shaped both the history of this discipline and its current practices. In 26 representative cases from across a broad spectrum of geographical, societal, and musical environments, authors collectively reflect on the impacts of ethnomusicological research, exploring the ways our work may instantiate privilege or risk bringing harm, as well as the means that are available to provide recognition, benefit, and reciprocation to the musicians a...
Disaster Songs as Intangible Memorials in Atlantic Canada
Disaster Songs as Intangible Memorials in Atlantic Canada draws on a collection of over 600 songs relating to Atlantic Canadian disasters from 1891 up until the present and describes the characteristics that define them as intangible memorials. The book demonstrates the relationship between vernacular memorials – informal memorials collectively and spontaneously created from a variety of objects by the general public – and disaster songs. The author identifies the features that define vernacular memorials and applies them to disaster songs: spontaneity, ephemerality, importance of place, motivations and meaning-making, content, as well as the role of media in inspiring and disseminating memorials and songs.
