DESCRIPTION:The Doctoral Colloquium is open to all.\n\nDoctoral Colloquium:
  Vanessa Blais-Tremblay (UQAM)\, “Musical Life in 1920s Quebec: Alternativ
 e methods for alternative histories”\n\nTitle: Musical Life in 1920s Quebe
 c: Alternative methods for alternative histories\n\nAbstract: This present
 ation introduces La Vie Musicale au Québec\, a research project that feder
 ates a network of scholars working since 2019 to establish the theoretical
  and methodological foundations for a more inclusive and decompartmentaliz
 ed history of “musical life” in Quebec during the first half of the 20th c
 entury. Co-directed by three McGill-alumni-turned-musicology-professors—Va
 nessa Blais-Tremblay (UQAM)\, Laura Risk (U. Toronto-Scarborough) and Sand
 ria P. Bouliane (U. Laval)—VMQ has developed and implemented an innovative
  primary source sampling process\, i.e. the analysis of a maximum number o
 f written\, phonographic\, iconographic and televisual documents from spec
 ific 24-hour periods between 1919 and 1960. Inspired by “annualist” studie
 s\, i.e. those that focus on a single year (Brackett 2016)\, by microhisto
 ry (Ginzburg and Poni 1981\; Guzzi-Heeb 2016) and by the history of the ev
 eryday (de Certeau 2002\, 1990\; DeNora 2000)\, this method enabled our re
 search team to generate a database of over 600 musical events over eight 2
 4-hour periods. This presentation will give an overview of the project his
 tory and methodology\, offer a theoretical framing for the concept of “mus
 ical life”\, and explore the rich diversity of people\, music and practice
 s that animated “ordinary musical life” in 1920s Quebec.\n\nBio: Vanessa B
