The Avant Garde Project
celebrates its quasquicentennial with a transcription of an
out-of-print CD containing two electroacoustic works by Francois Bayle:
Vibrations Composées (1973) and Grande Polyphonie (1974). Both works
combine acoustic and electronically generated sounds in an absolutely
delicious mix. Grande Polyphonie is my favorite work by Bayle and one
of my favorite electroacoustic works by any composer. If you enjoy the music in this installment, more works by Francois Bayle can be found at electrocd.com or ina.fr. Be sure also to pick up your copy of the magnificent and reasonably priced 12CD collection of works by Bayle's compatriot and colleague, Bernard Parmegiani. Parmegiani's De Natura Sonorum dates from the same year as Grande Polyphonie and uses some of the same acoustic sound sources. This CD transcription was kindly provided by an AGP partisan in the United Kingdom. The installment includes a set of JPGs with scans of the CD booklet notes. To download
