English summary: Jean Cocteau was always interested in music, as shown by these 310 texts written over the course of the artist's life. This critical edition of Cocteau's writings present his thoughts on musical subjects as diverse as Russian ballet, classical composers, jazz, and music-hall, as well as his own musical pieces and shows. French text. French description: Jean Cocteau s'est toujours interesse a la musique. Les 310 textes qui en temoignent se trouvent rassembles ici pour la premiere fois en un volume; le premier date de 1910, le dernier de 1963. Divers themes recurrents y apparaissent: les Ballets russes, ses promoteurs, ses danseurs ou ses ballets (Diaghilev, Misia Sert, Leon Bakst, Vaslav Nijinsky, Ida Rubinstein, Salome, Scheherazade, L'Apres-midi d'un faune); les compositeurs (Satie, Stravinsky, Ravel, Debussy, Le Groupe des Six); les artistes de varietes (Mistinguett, Marianne Oswald, Maurice Chevalier, Edith Piaf, Charles Trenet); le jazz, le music-hall. Et bien entendu, Cocteau s'etend aussi sur ses propres spectacles: Le Dieu bleu, Parade, Les Maries de la Tour Eiffel, Le Boeuf sur le toit, Le Jeune Homme et la Mort. Cette edition critique fournit pour l'ensemble de ces textes les variantes significatives des manuscrits et des differentes publications. D'abondantes annotations restituent le contexte des personnes et des oeuvres citees. L'ouvrage est accompagne de 137 illustrations originales de la main du poete.
