Research-Creation in Music and the Arts - Sophie Stevance - Bog

Since the 1970s, the landscape of higher education has been considerably altered by the integration of the arts within the university environment. The concept of ¿research-creation¿ allows scholars to collaborate on a common project, acknowledging participants expertise in the production of an artistic work that either generates theoretical reflections or has emerged from academic research. This fully revised translation of Sophie Stévance and Serge Lacasse¿s original French book offers an overview of the historical, political, social, cultural and academic contexts within which research-creation has emerged in Quebec and Canada, before similar conceptions appeared elsewhere in the world.
