Dezède et les programmes de concert sous l’Ancien Régime
The AcadéC research project, supported by the CMBV and funded by the ANR, has embarked on its third year of research into musical repertoires and practices that prevailed in the provincial Académies de Musique and Académies de Concerts between 1710 and 1770.
These official institutions stood at the crossroads of learned societies and private theatre companies, but little is known about them. This new field of research explores the background to their creations, their specific repertoires and distinct musical practices.
After two years identifying and sourcing archives to create a dedicated database, the first mapping of provincial Académies de Musique has been created and currently includes some 70 institutions.
This third and final year of research will focus on the musical repertoire of these Académies. What became known as Concerts broke away from liturgical and theatrical constraints and offered a new framework for publicising music, inventing totally original musical practices that diverged from the prevailing norm in Paris and Versailles.
The 2024-2025 seminar will involve 3 public sessions – on 13th December 2024 (at Lumière-Lyon 2 university), on 18th February 2025 (at Paul-Valéry, Montpellier 3 university), and on 6th May 2025 (in the Grange-Fleuret music library). A recital intitled Un concert à Lyon au XVIIIe siècle will be performed in March 2025 at Lyon, with a new production of one of the first public concerts held in the Académie des Beaux-arts in Lyons.
