Label: Sub Rosa - SR415

シュトックハウゼン、ルチアーノ・ベリオと出会いその後前衛的な音楽の研究に専念する事となる、2009年に他界したベルギー最高峰の作曲家の一人であるアンリ・プッスール。ここSub Rosaからは数種の音源がリリースされていますが、ここまで電子音楽で統一された作品集はコレが初。ブーレーズやマデルナ指揮のオーケストラ+エレクトロニクスという珍しい録音を含む54〜61年までの初期音源を収録、氏の底無しのナイトメア & カオスな世界観を堪能したい方は是非本作を。大推薦。

In 1954, Henri Pousseur was twenty-five when he composed his first piece of electronic music in the studios of the Cologne radio, where Stockhausen (with whom he had a close relationship) had created most of his famous pieces.

Henri Pousseur studied at the Academies of Music in Liège and in Brussels from 1947 to 1953. He was closely associated with Pierre Froidebise and André Souris. He encountered Pierre Boulez, Karlheinz Stockhausen and Luciano Berio and thereafter devoted himself to avant-garde research. Henri Pousseur has taught in Cologne, Basel, and in the United States at SUNY Buffalo, as well as in his native Belgium. From 1970 until his retirement in 1988 he taught at the University and Conservatory of Liège where he also founded the Centre de recherches et de formation musicales de Wallonie.
