Compositional Models in Xenakis's Electroacoustic Music

Agostino Di Scipio · Perspectives of New Music · 1998

N IANNIS XENAKIS'S OUTPUT, electroacoustic music plays a role that is quantitatively marginal but quite meaningful in its content. In the following observations, my aim is to demonstrate that highly relevant aspects of Xenakis's contribution to today's musical thinking are found in electroacoustic works like Concret PH (1958), Analogique A-B (195859), and Bohor (1962), up to La Legend d'Eer (1977), Mycenae-Alpha (1978), and Voyage absolu des Unari vers Andromede (1989), and most recently Gendy301 (1991) and S709(1994).
