Tell the music

In view of the works and creations that often preceded them, writings by composers are crucial to understanding music of the 20th century. With Charles Baudelaire the demand of the artist rationalizing their art and discovering its obscure laws was born, “It is impossible that a poet does not contain a critique.” Biographical, critical, theoretical, aesthetic, genealogical, paving the paths of a work still in the making or indulging in analytical introspection, the writings of composers constantly renew concepts and methods of musical discourse. Sometimes threatened by the dispersal of archives and the deterioration— if not disappearance—of manuscripts and typescripts in their original language, as well as magnetic tapes of interviews, the publications imagined, willingly exhaustive, situate each of the articles and propose a critical apparatus (historical, biographical and bibliographical references, index of works, catalogs...), thus placing at the disposal of musicians, music lovers, institutions and concert halls a set of documents properly gathered, translated and annotated. Laurent Feneyrou has recently edited writings by Andr. Hodeir and Niccol. Castiglioni following the publication of writings by Jean Barraqu., Giacomo Manzoni, Luigi Nono, Louis Saguer, Salvatore Sciarrino, and Fr.d.ric Durieux. After the editions of writings by Jean Barraqué, Giacomo Manzoni, Luigi Nono, Louis Saguer, Salvatore Sciarrino, Frédéric Durieux or Niccolò Castiglioni, Laurent Feneyrou is currently preparing volumes devoted to Franco Donatoni, Giuseppe Sinopoli, and Emmanuel Nunes.
