A comparison of collecting and presenting practicesSamenvatting
This research thesis compares different institutional (professional) ways of dealing
with objects of heritage related to popular music and musicians, and to reflect on them
in relation to non institutional collecting and presenting practices, such as those of fan
communities. The main question of this study sets out to answer is ‘how do the
institutional and non institutional ways of heritage making relate to each other, and
what can we learn from his comparison in terms of professional practice?’ The topic is
explored in a case study focusing on the English rock/pop band the Beatles and their
traces in the Netherlands. The Netherlands, as a specific location, plays an important
part in the Beatles’ biography as the location where two major events took place.
