Title
La musique au fil de la presse québécoise dans les belles années du régime anglais
Abstract
The author gives an overview of musical practices described in the Quebec press between 1764 and 1824. In order to organize this information and provide an historical context which is lacking in the press, he draws upon the historical framework of Lower Canada presented in a book entitled The Illustrated History of Canada, edited by Craig Brown. The contributions of each group (Germans, Scottish, Irish, Americans, English, French, Indigenous) to the cultural life of Quebec as well as the degree to which individuals felt bound to their cultural heritage are then evaluated. The author explains how the foundations of Quebec musical life were established in this period and how attitudes developed at that time by Francophones and Anglophones persisted until recently.
