Musique et cosmopolitisme culturel chez les jeunes

Abstract

The authors are in the midst of a research project on young people’s cultural cosmopolitanism. One theme they have examined in their research, music-listening habits, draws on a corpus of interviews with approximately 50 young people between the ages of 16 and 29. After describing their listening practices, preferences and tastes, and the genres they reject or accept, the authors consider how best to describe the diversity of young people’s musical interests and the omnipresence of music in their daily lives.
