Enquête: Enseignement, radio, livre et archives: souvenirs en quatre mouvements autour de Maryvonne Kendergi.

Maryvonne Kendergi (1915-2011) was of Armenian origin, born in Turkey; she lived in France and became a Canadian citizen in 1960. She played a major role in the development of contemporary music in Quebec, as a teacher, communicator and organizer. Her contributions to Quebec culture are closely linked to the history of the Faculty of Music at the Université de Montréal, to Radio-Canada, and organizations such as the Société de musique contemporaine du Québec (scmq) and the Association de recherche en musique du Québec (armuq, which later became the sqrm). This survey, carried out in 2022, brings together the personal testimonies of four people who were close to her: Marie-Thérèse Lefebvre, Françoise Davoine, Louise Bail and Mario Gauthier. Together they form a plural portrait of this multi-faceted pioneer, looking at her role as an educator, her contributions as a communicator (particularly on the radio), the publication of her biography, and the organization of her archives.
