Mathurin BULÉON

In 2012, Dastum Bro Ereg and the Departmental Archives of Morbihan published the book Mathurin BULÉON, Chansons traditionnelle du pays vannetais resuming the collections of the latter preserved in his manuscripts (Set of 36 notebooks, collections of scores, collected between 1902 and 1929).

All 670 versions of songs from this work are now available on the site with the addition of the 271 versions that were not yet mentioned and which have given rise to the creation of 232 new songs-types (M-02783 to M-03014). Of these new songs-types, 123 correspond to fragments of a single verse. However, it seemed interesting to take them into account. The summaries of these fragments reproduce their text in full.

The 882 occurrences of the songs in the manuscripts have also been added. The 104 Pdfs of the first 6 notebooks are now accessible. This is the first time that these original documents have been made available to the public. Thanks to Nolwenn MONJARRET who authorized their postings. These notebooks were scanned by Loeiz ER BRAZ. Pdfs from other notebooks will be added later.

Addition of 179 scores
Thank you to the Archives of Morbihan in Vannes for allowing us to put the scores of this work online and for having graciously provided us with the computer files. André LE MEUT, who had entered them, took the trouble to revise them in order to adapt them to online listening. BULÉON's book is still available from the Archives of Morbihan. This book includes 542 scores that will gradually be put online on the site.

Édouard GILLIOUARD

Addition of 96 Pdf from the Gilliouard Manuscripts.

Alexandre LÉDAN

Addition of 30 summaries of songs from the Lédan Manuscripts.

Improved search

Searches with accents and special characters have been improved: you can now search with pasted " œ" (like œdipus) or with ñ (like Fañch), for example. Previously, not all results were displayed.

The Oral Tradition catalogue currently lists 2647 songs-types and 7667 occurrences of songs.

Addition of the 120 Pdfs of the Manuscript Collection of Loeiz ER BRAZ. The quality of these scans is not always satisfactory, but since, for several of songs, the Loeiz ER BRAZ version is the only known version, these Pdfs are particularly interesting.

Corrections of the references of the GILLIOUARD Manuscripts to the Departmental Archives of Morbihan.

Addition of 207 Pdfs of songs collected by Yves LE DIBERDER and copied by Édouard GILLIOUARD in his Manuscripts.

Addition of 114 songs-types (between M-02572 and M-02746). These songs-types come from the Manuscripts of Alexandre LÉDAN. Some of the songs are literate and their author is known (Alexandre LÉDAN himself, M. DE LANSALUT, François Guenveur, etc.). Some of the songs were published in Broadsheets.
It is likely that some songs did not circulate in the oral tradition. Since we have chosen to take into account all the songs present in a manuscript or a work containing songs attested in the oral tradition, we have included them in this catalogue.
About forty summaries were made by Laurence BERTHOU-BÉCAM. Other abstracts will be added later.
These 114 songs-types correspond to 422 new occurrences in the catalogue.

The Oral Tradition catalogue currently lists 2415 songs-types and 16498 occurrences of songs.

Audio publications (78 rpm, vinyl, cassettes, CDs) are now included in the catalogue.
Their integration will take place gradually. For the moment, only the already identified song types are catalogued, which explains why, sometimes, not all the songs on a record appear. For this version, 436 audio occurrences that can be listened to in Mp3 have been added. They correspond to the discs published by Mouez Breiz and the CDs published by the Kreizenn Sevenadurel Lannuon (KSL).
These occurrences correspond mainly to a cappella interpretations. Musical groups are not taken into account.
However, it seemed interesting to integrate recordings, prior to the revival years (1970), to show the diffusion of traditional songs in modernized forms (choir, piano accompaniment, interpretation of classical singing, ...). These recordings are mainly taken in the 78 rpm and Mouez Breiz vinyls. They are not taken into account in the versions of the standard songs and appear in the catalogue under the heading "Other Interpretations".

Photos of Authors (60), Collectors (82) and Performers (83) have been added.

Addition of 391 songs from the book of BULÉON Mathurin, Traditional songs from the Vannetais area (Early 20th century) published by the Departmental Archives of Morbihan in 2012.

Addition of 66 songs from the book LE MÉRER Constance, A collection of popular songs in the Lannion area, Texts and music presented by Bernard LASBLEIZ & Daniel GIRAUDON published by Dastum Bro-Dreger in 2015.

For these two books, at present only songs corresponding to already identified standard songs are taken into account. The others will be added later.

The catalogue of Oral Tradition currently lists 2302 standard songs and 15960 occurrences of songs.

Addition of the 125 songs from the work of GUILLEVIC Augustin, CADIC Jean-Mathurin, Chants et airs traditionnels du pays vannetais (fin XIXe siècle) published by Dastum Bro Ereg and the Archives départementales du Morbihan in 2007.

Bibliography
The bibliography has been completed. Addition of links to the referenced books.

Extension of the Oral Tradition catalogue
The catalogue developed by Patrick Malrieu dates from 1998, the year he submitted his doctoral thesis in Celtic Studies entitled "La chanson populaire de tradition orale en langue bretonne - Contribution à l’établissement d’un catalogue". This catalogue included 1688 standard songs (M-00001 to M-01790) and 5000 occurrences. Since then, Didier Bécam’s analysis of new works or manuscripts has made it possible to identify new song types and add new occurrences to the catalogue.
Together with Patrick Malrieu, we decided that when analysing new works or manuscripts, all songs will be taken into account. Those deemed to be of scholarly origins and not falling within the oral tradition are classified in the theme "Literate Songs".
Patrick Malrieu had begun to validate the new type songs identified by Didier Bécam, unfortunately he could not complete this verification. We are therefore required to assume the extension of the catalogue developed by Patrick Malrieu. The new references start at M-02001. Currently nearly 700 new song-types have been identified. The summaries were made by Laurence Berthou-Bécam.
For this new version of the site, 109 references have been added. References M-02001 to M-02026 correspond to songs collected by Cadic and references M-02027 to M-02109 to songs collected by Le Diberder.
These references correspond to 297 occurrences, 175 versions. The other references will be added gradually.

Correspondence between Songs of Oral Tradition and Broadsheet
Some songs collected in the Oral Tradition have also been published in Broadsheet. Example: Ar filouter fin / Le fin filou (M-00179 and C-00530). For now, the correspondence has been established for 69 songs, but others will be gradually processed on the site.
For these songs, the Breton and French critical titles, as well as the summaries have been harmonized.
An example of a Broadsheet published by a printer has been added to the list of occurrences of singing in Oral Tradition. To see the different editions of Broadsheet, we will refer to the Broadsheet section of the site.
A link at the end of the song, allows you to move from the Oral Tradition part of the site to the Broadsheet part.
