Pierre Albert Castanet, « Musique et Société », Filigrane, ID : 10670/1.c2547f...
Following Tout est bruit pour qui a peur – Pour une histoire sociale du son sale (Paris, Michel de Maule, 1999, reed. 2007) and Quand le sonore cherche noise – Pour une philosophie du bruit (Paris, Michel de Maule, 2008), Pierre Albert Castanet’s article attempts to show that sound-confusion is the reflection of modern society. Focusing on the symbolic Sixties – and notably the Parisian events of May 1968 –, this study, which is just as sociological as it is aesthetic, explores the relationship to the impure in serious music and popular music. Castanet demonstrates how noise bears witness to world misery as well as to the new artistic expression.
