Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract The musical life of interwar France (1919-39) has fascinated many writers; however, the part played by women musicians has been much neglected. This thesis seeks to rectify this situation by presenting a study of the activities and reception of the musiciennes of interwar France. The thesis is divided into three parts: part one provides a contextual framework within which to situate the pursuits of women musicians by considering both their contemporary social position and the gender- specific conditions which affect the lives, careers, and reception of musiciennes. Part two focuses on conductors and composers. Jane Evrard and her Orchestre feminin de Paris are discussed within the context of the contemporaneous development of the all woman orchestra and rise of the first professional female conductors. -

His scholarly activities embrace musicology as well as library science and bibliography as they apply to music. Among his musicological interests are composers of the 18th-19th centuries (Locatelli, Rolla, Mendelssohn, Bottesini, Ponchielli) as well as publishing documents and music scores. In the field of library science he has dealt with the theory of cataloging, as well as the organization of music archives.

Les Variations Casadesus
Les variations Casadesus Samedi 18 février à 22.30 Ils sont musicien, comédien, interprète, compositeur, peintre, écrivain… les membres de la prestigieuse dynastie Casadesus témoignent au quotidien de leur amour de l’art, héritage de leur aïeul Luis Casadesus. Pour ARTE, ils racontent cette passion, qu’ils perpétuent de génération en génération depuis plus d’un siècle. 2 MUSICA Les variations Casadesus Samedi 18 février à 22.30 Un film d’Elisabeth Kapnist Coproduction : ARTE France, Cinétévé, Kuiv Productions avec la participation de France 3, la Sacem, la Procirep et le CNC (2005-52mn) u commencement était Luis Casadesus, né en 1850 de père inconnu. Élevé par sa mère et sa grand-mère qui détestaient la musique, elle sera pourtant au cœur de sa vie. A A ses enfants il impose l’apprentissage de la musique, les garçons au violon, les filles au piano. Il devient le fondateur d’une dynastie d’artistes qui rayonne encore aujourd’hui. La réalisatrice Elisabeth Kapnist est partie à la rencontre des membres de la famille Casadesus, et tourne avec eux les pages d’un album de famille illustrant plus d’un siècle d’activités artistiques. Chacun raconte la chance de faire partie de cette illustre lignée, mais aussi les difficultés que cela implique. Saisir la part d’héritage familial et collectif qui préside à la formation de chaque individu, et la persistance du passé dont se nourrit secrètement chaque destinée humaine, là est justement l’enjeu autour duquel est construit le film. Les protagonistes de l’histoire familiale actuelle évoquent bien sûr ceux qui les ont précédés : de la tante Rose à la grand-mère Tatiana, en passant par des noms aussi prestigieux que ceux des pianistes Robert et Gaby Casadesus et de leur fils Jean. -
