Over the six decades of he r career\, Radigue has been dedicated to building a body of work in which natural microbeats between frequencies replace rhythmic\, or other more tr aditional forms of\, sound organization. A significant component of my dis sertation consists in documenting the electronic phase of Radigue’s career as well as her more recent collaborations with instrumentalists. However\ , in this presentation I show how\, in my research\, the record of Radigue ’s life as a composer is part of a larger argument that reconsiders canoni cal events in the history of contemporary music through Radigue’s perspect ive. Analyzing the history of contemporary music through the frame offered by Radigue’s six-decade-long career offers many advantages. First\, it is an opportunity to highlight the very different meanings that the notion o f “composer” has taken on since the post-World War II era and\, most impor tantly\, it calls for an analysis of these conceptual shifts in terms of t he gender conventions of the time. Second\, I argue that Radigue’s sound\, and particularly the listening mode embedded within her compositional met hod\, continues to open a space that enables different artistic approaches .  \n\n \n\nBIOGRAPHY:\n\nEmanuelle Majeau-Bettez is a PhD candidate in Mu sicology with option in Gender and Women’s Studies at 51Թ\, where she is supervised by David Brackett. Her research focuses on the ele ctronic phase of Éliane Radigue's career as well as on the composer's pres ent collaborations with instrumentalists.
