Abstract
In this interview, Joseph Petric, the internationally acclaimed concert accordionist, shares his thoughts on his personal artistic development, on his relationship to the works of the past, and on his 'plurivocal' (Eco) view of the conflicting aesthetic tendencies which lie at the heart of today's concert music. His relationship with his somewhat unusual instrument turns out to be inseparable from his undying support for contemporary and even experimental music. His goal is to produce, sometimes ironically, an authentic artistic enunciation.

Au cours de cet entretien, Joseph Petric, l’accordéoniste de concert de réputation internationale, partage ses réflexions sur son parcours personnel, son rapport avec le répertoire du passé et sa vision « plurivocale » (Eco) du conflit entre les multiples tendances esthétiques qui sous-tendent la musique de nos jours. Son rapport avec son instrument (insolite) se révèle indissociable des relations (amicales) qu’il entretient avec les musiques contemporaines. Il tâche ainsi d’atteindre, parfois non sans ironie, une énonciation artistique authentique.
