Dancing the Nation? French Dance Diplomacy in Allied-Occupied Austria, 1945–55
Austrian History Yearbook. 2019. Vol. 50. P. 166-183.
These excerpts from critical reviews covering French dance tours in Vienna, Salzburg, and Innsbruck reflect the scale and variety of French cultural engagement and its growing public visibility in Austria. Out of the four Allied powers, it was France, and not the Soviet Union with its “ballet capital,” that made most use of dance and ballet for nation-brandingpurposes, both in sabots and on pointe. France's dance diplomacy exported all genres of dance to Austria in order to portray the politically and militarily weakened nation as a rayonnant cultural leader of Europe, whose diversity, supremacy, and grandeur were not undone by 1871 and 1940.

Conçu comme un moyen de rapprochement franco-autrichien, le déploiement des musiques et musiciens français en Autriche s’inscrivait dans la politique d’occupation et d’expansion culturelle. Cette diplomatie musicale, partie intégrante de la diplomatie culturelle, visait à créer un sentiment de communauté avec la France au détriment du nationalisme germanique, à établir une position de prestige dans ...

The article presents a discursively oriented international and transnational approach to the Salzburg Festival's musical-political history in the local, national, and global context. Standing at the crossroads between the prestige politics of post–World War II Salzburg, the U.S. occupation, and the nation of France, these musicians contributed to the construction of imageries of musical Frenchness ...

Upon Vienna's liberation, the quickly restored Austro-Soviet Society was equally quick to find out that the demand for Russian music far outweighed any interest in Soviet Communism. In a burnt-out Vienna, sheet music was a valuable commodity, and generous Soviet imports, an intergral part of musical diplomacy, were influential in shaping early post-war repertoires and ...
