AGP136 is the second of three featuring the music of Charles Chaynes, a French composer who held executive positions at France-Musique and Radio-France for much of his career, and so has produced a smaller body of work than he might have otherwise. This installment includes all of the instrumental music by Chaynes that I could find in my stacks. Tracks 06 and 07 are the two earliest works by Chaynes listed in my edition of the Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians. I don't find them as beguiling as his later works, but track 08 is one of my favorites.

The LPs transcribed for this installment are both in excellent condition with little pressing noise. The installment includes a PDF file with scans of the liner notes from all four LPs included in this and the other two Chaynes installments.
