Repertoire has multiple meanings, which can't be subsumed under a unique concept. These different definitions result from vehement debates in history, which sometimes continue until nowadays. Thus repertoire raises political, juridical and economical questions, so as aesthetical and ontological ones. Repertorialisation of music occured in the middle of 18th century France : borrowing a theatrical term, lyrical music constructed itself in parallel and opposition with theatre. Repertoire took for object only scores, in order to be strictly a musical repertoire. Consequently it participated to the formation of the modern concept of musical work. When instrumental music is repertorialised occured an aesthetical chiasm : opera became a problematic genre, because only scores are repertoire objects, but at the same time instrumental music got a lyrical manner of functioning, because of its repertorialisation. The notion of repertoire implicates therefore a latent thought of music, which has to be clarified by an historical and philosophical method. ; Le répertoire est une notion aux multiples acceptions, qui ne sont pas subsumables sous un concept unique. Ces significations sont le fruit de débats historiques très vifs, dont les enjeux perdurent parfois jusqu'à nos jours. Le répertoire soulève ainsi des questions non seulement politiques, juridiques et économiques, mais également esthétiques et ontologiques. La répertorialisation de la musique a lieu au milieu du xviiie siècle en France : empruntant un terme théâtral, la musique lyrique se construit parallèlement et en opposition au théâtre. Le répertoire prend pour objet la seule partition afin de se musicaliser, participant ainsi de la construction de l'idée moderne d'œuvre musicale.

Given the difficulty to describe the musical forms of the Arabian Peninsula, which are very little known, three main geographical areas are presented here : the Arabian Gulf, Saudi Arabia and Yemen. In the Gulf, there are two main styles : pearl-divers' songs, al-ghaws, and traditional urban music, sawt, accompanying the zafan dance. In Saudi Arabia and the Nejd, four main categories of music can be distinguished : the dewînih, a solo voice accompanied with rabâb, the sâmirî, a collective chanting with frame drums, târ, performed during the night ; the 'arda , a ceremonial dance for political and tribal events and the riddiyya, a poetical contest. The main poetry is the nabatî genre, in colloquial Arabic. In Hejaz, the urban music is influenced by the cultural trends brought by the Pilgrimage, and show influences from Yemen, Syria, Egypt and Irak, although it has its specific features. In Yemen, three main regions can roughly be distinguished : the Zaydi Highlands, dominated by cultivators tribes which have war and agricultural songs, but with an old urban civilization in Sanaa ; the Shafii coastal plains, with a music typically influenced by the sea (fishermen, sailing from the Gulf and Egypt) ; the Hadramawt (inner and outer) which developped very specifical form, mainly based on the dân poetry, with cultural influences from south and south east Asia. In most of the rural forms, the percussions instruments are predominant, when in the urban forms, several forms of lute are dominant. This article does not cover Oman nor the Sanaa Song. The diversity and unity of music in the Arabian Peninsula express themselves in a series of sociological, linguistic and performing features common to all these countries, but with many related variants.

This book investigates the relationship between music and war from the end of the XVIII century to WWI. 0The centennial commemorations of the Great War in 2014 have yielded significant research on the relationship between music and this first world-wide conflict. Thanks to several conferences and publications, our knowledge about the musical repertoire played on the home front, the musical practices of the soldiers, or the war?s impact on European musical life, is expanding. While joining the efforts to enlighten this particularly little-known period of music history, this book aims to investigate that relationship by adopting a larger time-span: from the end of eighteenth century until the outbreak of the First World War. What kind of connections can be found between music, musicians or the musical economy (editions, the circulation of scores, opera and concert programming, professionalisation) and the different conflicts that would tear the European continent apart? Bringing together more than twenty case studies dealing with several European wars, this volume also investigates the evolution of the perception of the sound of war (by Martin Kaltenecker), and proposes new perspectives based on recent 20th-century music and war studies
