Day of Study - The Writings of François Decarsin
This day of study is dedicated to François Decarsin (1950-2017) whose research was pivotal in the world of musicology during the decades that marked the passage from the 20th to the 21st century.
The approach is meant to be a commentary, analysis, interpretation, and extension of the scientific positions found in his published works. Special attention will be paid to the essay La musique, architecture du temps (2001), exploring the multiplicity and complexity of the inclusion of musical works in time, as well as his final work: La modernité en question, deux siècles d’invention musicale 1781-1972 (2010), the culmination of the scrutation of what he calls the “généalogie du nouveau”.
