Description

Tout au long du XIXe siecle, la place accordee a la pratique musicale collective dans le nord de la France et notamment a Lille est considerable. Toutefois aucun ouvrage jusqu'a present n'avait encore ete consacre a l'un de ses aspects les plus specifiques, a savoir l'engouement exceptionnel des auditeurs et des musiciens eux-memes pour le concert symphonique. Des festivals grandioses ou brillent des interpretes renommes et des compositeurs tels que Berlioz; des societes dynamiques a meme de creer plus d'un chef-d'oeuvre avant Paris; de grands ensembles que dirigent tantot un Alfred Cortot, tantot l'une des premieres femmes chef d'orchestre, constituent autant de precieux temoignages qui, le siecle durant, conferent a la ville son surnom bien merite: Lille, la melomane . Dans une cite douee d'une intense vie politique et economique, l'analyse d'une des formes essentielles de sociabilite demontre le lien profond et permanent qui unit les pratiques symphoniques aux representants des milieux industriels. La passionnante decouverte de toute une richesse insoupconnee s'offre alors au musicologue, au musicien ou au melomane pour qui l'apport de riches illustrations agremente encore la lecture.
