The Cdmc holds a unique collection representing all aesthetics within musical creation. This collection has grown thanks to the collaboration of composers, publishers and Radio France. With a consultation area open to the public, the centre also affords access to many online resources through the Catalogue and the Gateway to Contemporary Music. A beacon of the latest music news with its website, the Cdmc organises encounters with the movers and shakers of contemporary music.
The Cdmc presents a season of encounters, seminars and day study sessions designed to counterpoint the views of specialists and professionals and to spotlight composers and performers. Focussing on topical aspects of the music scene, they are organised in collaboration with the main players of musical creation: ensembles, centres for creation, festivals, etc., as well as with those involved in research, the universities and conservatories. Dédicaces (Dedications): these are encounters featuring newly released books, discs or DVDs.

Deleuze and music - The ‘Becoming’ of music and creation
ENS-Paris, Université Sorbonne-Paris IV
Coordination: Danielle Cohen-Levinas
Gilles Deleuze laid stress on the notion of becoming: the expression ‘becoming animal’ [‘devenir animal’], a concept he created, is well known. His writings on music pay lively and constant attention to the phenomenon of creation, and more especially to the writing of music, going beyond its own present. It is thus legitimate, with all due care, to extend the question of becoming to music itself.
