Rezensionen / Stimmen
"The reader is impressed by how much scholarly writing has been devoted to the subject of popular music in France during the past sixty years. In the 24 studies and introductory essays constituting this volume, almost every statement is backed by some form of documentation. Each study and the whole book are accompanied by an extensive bibliography. Also noteworthy is the fluidity of the terminology used to designate the various genres of popular music, the same words meaning different things to different people."-James P. Gilroy, University of Denver, USA
<< Y a-t-il quelque chose de specifiquement francais dans la musique francaise ? >> Ainsi s'ouvre Made in France, dirige par Gerome Guibert et Catherine Rudent. L'interet de ce recueil est, d'une part, de poser la question dans le champ des musiques populaires ... D'autre part, l'etude porte sur une periode riche en revolutions sociales, culturelles et economiques, allant de la seconde moitie du xxe siecle a nos jours. Mais pas question ici de tirer des conclusions definitives au sujet d'un phenomene aussi dynamique que celui de la musique populaire francaise. Il s'agit au contraire d'en dresser un portrait << cubiste >> aux problematiques multiples - sociologiques, musicologiques, esthetiques, technologiques, ideologiques et litteraires. Cette pluridisciplinarite des articles compiles offre une richesse bibliographique que nous saluerons des a present : Made in France est une synthese de facto incontournable des differentes traditions de la recherche francaise sur sa culture musicale nationale.
