MUSICAL STROLLS


MIRANDA


MULTIDISCIPLINARY REVIEW OF THE ENGLISH-SPEAKING WORLD

MULTIDISCIPLINARY PEER-REVIEWED JOURNAL ON THE ENGLISH-SPEAKING WORLD

Issue 28


The autumn 2023 issue of the journal Miranda contains, in the music sub-section (edited by Nathalie Vincent-Arnaud) of its Ariel's Corner section, the first part of my second "musical stroll" entitled "Quelques escapades musicales en Bretagne: voyage sans bateau du Donegal aux Highlands et du pays de Galles aux Asturies".


Like the first of these "musical strolls" ("Dix jours d'un concert à l'autre à la Nouvelle-Orléans"), it is an experimentation in hybridity between the forms of a research paper (with an apparatus of informative and analytical endnotes based on scientific, journalistic sources, as well as primary sources from the music medium, the video medium, etc.), of more impressionistic criticism, and of a literary text (in the genre of the travel journal/logbook). This time, after New Orleans, the text deals with a musical journey through various places in Brittany, mainly in Lorient, during the town's international Celtic music festival—a journey that took place during the summer of 2023.


Unlike the previous one, this second episode of the musical strolls series will itself be published in two parts, the second part being planned for the next issue of Miranda, in spring 2024.

Issue 26


The autumn 2022 issue of the journal Miranda contains, in the music sub-section (edited by Nathalie Vincent-Arnaud) of its Ariel's Corner section, my text entitled "Dix jours d'un concert à l'autre à la Nouvelle-Orléans".


It is an experimentation in hybridity between the forms of a research paper (with an apparatus of informative and analytical endnotes based on scientific, journalistic sources, as well as primary sources from the music medium, the video medium, etc.), of more impressionistic criticism, and of a literary text (in the genre of the travel journal/logbook), this text invites the reader to share with me a musical journey through the clubs, streets, cafes, restaurants and one of the museums of the Crescent City nestled in the hollow of the Mississippi, from jazz to blues to folk to Cajun music and occasional rock, mirroring the similar journey I had the opportunity to experience during the summer of 2022.
