Branding Brussels Musically: Cosmopolitanism and Nationalism in the Interwar Years
BRANDING BRUSSELS MUSICALLY: COSMOPOLITANISM AND NATIONALISM IN THE INTERWAR YEARS Catherine A. Hughes A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music. Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Annegret Fauser Mark Evan Bonds Valérie Dufour John L. Nádas Chérie Rivers Ndaliko © 2015 Catherine A. Hughes ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Catherine A. Hughes: Branding Brussels Musically: Cosmopolitanism and Nationalism in the Interwar Years (Under the direction of Annegret Fauser) In Belgium, constructions of musical life in Brussels between the World Wars varied widely: some viewed the city as a major musical center, and others framed the city as a peripheral space to its larger neighbors. Both views, however, based the city’s identity on an intense interest in new foreign music, with works by Belgian composers taking a secondary importance. This modern and cosmopolitan concept of cultural achievement offered an alternative to the more traditional model of national identity as being built solely on creations by native artists sharing local traditions. Such a model eluded a country with competing ethnic groups: the Francophone Walloons in the south and the Flemish in the north. Openness to a wide variety of music became a hallmark of the capital’s cultural identity. As a result, the forces of Belgian cultural identity, patriotism, internationalism, interest in foreign culture, and conflicting views of modern music complicated the construction of Belgian cultural identity through music. By focusing on the work of the four central people in the network of organizers, patrons, and performers that sustained the art music culture in the Belgian capital, this dissertation challenges assumptions about construction of musical culture.

Emmanuel Chabrier
Emmanuel Chabrier Conférence de M. Alfred Bruneau de l’Institut Avec l’éminent concours de Mme Croiza et de M. Jean Doyen Faite le 16 février 1932 répétée le même jour publiée dans Conferencia, n°11, 15 mai 1933 Mesdames, Mesdemoiselles, Messieurs, Parmi nos poètes du son et du rythme victimes de leur propre génie et de l’incompréhension des foules, Emmanuel Chabrier occupa un rang incomparable. Je l’ai beaucoup connu, aimé, admiré ; j’ai assisté à ses déboire, à ses luttes ; j’ai reçu ses confidences et pénétré ses desseins. Je voudrais esquisser son image exacte, dégagée des erreurs empêchant souvent la postérité de voir les hommes célèbres tels qu’ils furent. Vous observerez de quel prix se payent maintes fois la joie et l’orgueil d’être un artiste. Chabrier nous quitta le 13 septembre 1894. Par conséquent, personne de la nouvelle génération ne peut se flatter de l’avoir aperçu. Sa vie fut une sorte de drame shakespearien, développé secrètement dans l’atmosphère d’allégresse prodigieuse qui émanait de tout son être. Je vous en ferai le récit, que j’illustrerai d’assez nombreux fragments de ses lettres. Ce sera, je crois, le meilleur moyen de vous y intéresser. Car mon cher Emmanuel ne se contenta pas de prendre place au milieu des plus grands musiciens de France et d’ailleurs. Il se montra l’un des plus merveilleux épistoliers que je sache. Il écrivait comme il parlait, comme il gesticulait, comme il composait, comme il jouait du piano. Une ligne tombée de sa plume, c’est lui-même, vibrant, exubérant, débordant de virils enthousiasmes et de magnifiques indignations, sublime et familier, tendre et brutal, gai jusqu’à l’exaspération du rire et de la fantaisie, enflammé jusque dans l’expression des tristesse et des douleurs.

The succession of Werther's letters, mainly to his friend Wilhelm, traces the psycho- logical state of the protagonist along a downward curve of increasing despair and alienation, after his initial optimistic identification with resplendent Nature and elation during the first days with his beloved Lotte. Goethe's heroine, like Prévost's Manon, appears mainly through the eyes of her obsessive admirer. As with the figure of Manon, the stage would require Charlotte to have a larger degree of dramatic agency in her own right.

THE YALE COLLECTION OF HISTORICAL SOUND RECORDINGS by Karol Berger Since about the turn of the century newly invented methods of sound recording began to be used regularly to document the activities of performing artists in many fields. In the last eighty years or so many ex amples of musical and theatrical performances, and also of literary readings and political oratory, have been preserved through the medium of recorded sound. The academic world's recognition of the educational and scholarly value of this material has been slow, and even today it is by no means universal. Yale University was one of the first institutions of higher learning and research in this country to per ceive this value and, as· the result of this percep tion, the Yale Collection of Historical Sound Record ings (HSR for short) was established as a part of the University Library in 1961. The Collection's purpose, which was formulated at its inception and which continues to guide its activities, is to collect, preserve, and make avail able for study sound recordings in the fields of the Western classical music and theater, poetry and literature, history and politics. It was decided initially not to collect jazz, popular, folk, or non Western music, because the University did not offer courses in these fields and also because they were represented in fine archives already in existence. Recently however, the Collection has accepted gifts of jazz and ethnographic records, since courses are now offered at Yale which may use such material. The man to whom HSR mostly owes its conception and continuing existence is Laurence C.
