In days of old, the hills of Montmartre were covered with vineyards that supplied most of Paris’ wine. Today the vineyards produce about 500 bottles per year The Romans called it Mons Mercurii, after erecting a hilltop shrine to their god of commerce. Medieval folks referred to it as Montmartre, or "Hill of Martyrs," after legend stated that their patron saint tucked his decapitated head under his arm and walked from this hill to a more comfortable resting spot north of Paris. In more modern times the village of Montmartre, at Paris’ highest point, is best known for the many painters who frequented its sidewalk café. Living and breathing their art and often trading it for a hot meal. Montmartre attracted such great artists as Picasso, Modigliani, Renoir, Manet, Toulouse Lautrec and Van Gogh. Walking around here it is easy to see the indelible mark from Montmartre’s colourful past. The narrow cobble stoned streets are still home to painters capitalising on the artists whose space they have taken on the Place du Tertre. Some of the cabarets once alive with song and young women dancing the cancan in Toulouse Lautrec’s paintings are still open. Two of the thirty windmills which ground the wheat grown on the butte in the 1600’s are still standing, and the last Paris surviving vineyards on Rue des Saules is still producing wine. Explore the village of Montmartre and see why its sloping streets are still the obsession of painters, photographers and tourists alike. Enjoy! 1 Table of contents Page 3.

  • Against Expression?: Avant-Garde Aesthetics in Satie's" Parade"
    Against Expression?: Avant-garde Aesthetics in Satie’s Parade A thesis submitted to the Division of Graduate Studies and Research of the University of Cincinnati In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC In the division of Composition, Musicology, and Theory of the College-Conservatory of Music 2020 By Carissa Pitkin Cox 1705 Manchester Street Richland, WA 99352 pitkincm@email.uc.edu B.A. Whitman College, 2005 M.M. The Boston Conservatory, 2007 Committee Chair: Dr. Jonathan Kregor, Ph.D. Abstract The 1918 ballet, Parade, and its music by Erik Satie is a fascinating, and historically significant example of the avant-garde, yet it has not received full attention in the field of musicology. This thesis will provide a study of Parade and the avant-garde, and specifically discuss the ways in which the avant-garde creates a dialectic between the expressiveness of the artwork and the listener’s emotional response. Because it explores the traditional boundaries of art, the avant-garde often resides outside the normal vein of aesthetic theoretical inquiry. However, expression theories can be effectively used to elucidate the aesthetics at play in Parade as well as the implications for expressability present in this avant-garde work. The expression theory of Jenefer Robinson allows for the distinction between expression and evocation (emotions evoked in the listener), and between the composer’s aesthetical goal and the listener’s reaction to an artwork. This has an ideal application in avant-garde works, because it is here that these two categories manifest themselves as so grossly disparate.

And often it’s love at first sight. Whether you’re sipping a café crème or a glass of wine in a street café in the lively Quartier Latin, taking in the breathtaking pano- ramic view across the city from Sacré-Coeur, enjoying a romantic boat trip on the Seine, taking a relaxed stroll through the Jardin du Luxembourg or appreciating great works of art in the muse- ums – few will be able to resist the charm of the French capital.

This book, written by an Englishman who lived in Montmartre for 30 years and knew its famous habitués intimately, gives a vivid description. It reveals the truth behind the many legends, is packed with authentic stories about writers and painters whose names are now household words, and contains much hitherto unpublished information about the life and career of Modigliani, obtained from his family and friends. Much of the text was written in Montmartre amid the scenes described, and after personal consultation with survivors of the great days when Frédé presided over the Lapin Agile and Libion, patron of the Café de la Rotonde, was beginning to rival him in Montparnasse. It is the most complete account which has yet been written in English of the birth of Cubism and other contemporary movements in modern painting, and of the lives and loves that started them.
