Résumé

In the last two decades, the introduction of scientific research at most of the great European conservatoires has given a new relevance to the question of collaborations between artists and researchers. Nevertheless, the work conducted jointly around musical repertoires of the past forms part of a story that goes back to the mid-19th century. It is this adventure that this book recounts, by exploring the multiple interpretative practices elicited by the scores of yesteryear.

The dozen articles it contains invite the reader to rediscover a great many neglected figures in the aural reinvention of music of the past, from reformers of the Catholic liturgy to the Singers of St Gervais, via the Théophiliens group at the Sorbonne and the protagonists of an innovative experiment conducted recently around Angelo Poliziano’s Orfeo.
