Summary of This Book
Born in 1948 in Rome, Philippe Hersant built a solid path early on at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris, notably under André Jolivet. This book revisits those formative years, then key stages of his artistic development, such as his scholarship stays at the Casa Velasquez (1970 to 1972) and the Villa Médicis (1978 to 1980). These milestones shed light on the cultural grounding of his writing and the gradual maturation of his language.
Throughout the pages, one also understands how Hersant has been involved in French musical life over the long term: from 1973, he became a producer of radio programs at France Musique, nurturing his listening, curiosity, and relationship to repertoires. His catalog, rich with about sixty pieces (not counting his scores for cinema or stage), attests to a broad and coherent oeuvre, now widely recognized. The text highlights an essential trait: without "tricking" history, Philippe Hersant extends the course of Western music while reinvesting, among the first of his generation, a tonal and modal space. Far from a neoclassical stance, he claims instead a certain mannerism and an assumed subjectivity, guided by memory and sensitive experience. An ideal read for musicians, music lovers, and the curious who wish to connect listening with a fine understanding of compositional choices, lineages, and singularities of this composer.
