Abstract
`titrebMusic as ambassador ? The Association française d’action artistique (1922-2006) : results and stakes`/titrebBased upon archives and publications of the Association française d’action artistique (AFAA), this paper concerns the evolution of this structure – which soon became close to the French government – from a musical point of view, through the gradual diversification of its duties and objectives. It highlights some of AFAA’s founding principles, its stakes and its main achievements in the musical domain, in France and beyond, from the early 1920s until its merger with the Association pour le développement de la pensée française and the birth of CulturesFrance in 2006.
