Research
Letter from Henri Rabaud to Daniel Halévy
Scientific research lies at the heart of the activities of the Palazzetto Bru
Zane – Centre de musique romantique française. Its aim is twofold :
to obtain recognition for the lesser-known works of well-known composers,
such as Bizet, Gounod,
Massenet and so on.
to rehabilitate composers such as Méhul, Hérold, Onslow, Alkan, Pierné and
many others, whose works are rarely played in concert.
Musicological research is carried out in collaboration with
concervatoires, universities and international research bodies. Backed up by
colloquia and study days, these scientific activities also take in the related
fields of art history, organology, literature,
the performing arts, and so on.
