Orchestral Learning Devices in the Montreal Region. Myths, facts, strengths, and weaknesses »
As part of my doctorate, I am carrying out a field study of the various orchestral learning projects implemented in the Montreal region to put into perspective their strengths as well as their pedagogical shortcomings. As these different projects aim to place music within everyone’s reach, it seems important to me to understand the different pedagogical, economic, geographical, and sociological issues with which they may be confronted.
Through this poster, I want to offer a sample of three different programs grouping the same survey parameters to analyze them. The results will be cross-checked in the form of a table to ensure a visual and clear cross-reading. I would also make available the interview guides and observation grids that I would have had to complete at the end of the fieldwork. Compiling this repertoire of data will allow me to analyze in depth and compare these three standard programs to reveal their strengths or possible pedagogical limits.
Biography
A doctoral student in classical flute performance at the Université de Montréal since 2021, Marie Éliane Dubois has been interested from the start of her studies in the different means of transmitting music, on the one hand by working in music schools in giving individual lessons, then integrating in France, various Demos orchestras or groups of orchestras at the school. In 2018, she decided, under the supervision of Mr. Gilles Delebarre, to carry out field research on the future of children from Demos programs at the end of their courses “From the need for the Demos system to a sustainable development in the territory “.
After obtaining her interpretation and teaching diplomas (DE) in Bordeaux, Marie wanted to continue with a master’s degree in interpretation with a view to subsequently starting a career as an orchestral musician in parallel with teaching. This allowed him to meet Mathieu Lussier and become a research assistant for his work on the evolution of military music.
