| AGP37 is the first of
three installments devoted to electronic and electro-acoustic music
from six different European countries. This one surveys productions of
three different electronic music studios in Germany, created between
1951 and 1962. Included are seminal compositions applying a number of
new approaches to electronic sound production. The torrent includes a
text file containing booklet notes from the two LPs from which these
works were transcribed. The notes in German are an unedited output of
my OCR software. Compositions by Karlheinz Stockhausen and Gottfried Michael Koenig on one of the two LPs were not included because they are currently available on CD. Gesang der Jünglinge (1955/56) by Stockhausen can be obtained from stockhausen.org. Klangfiguren II (1955/56) by Koenig is on an excellent 2CD collection of Koenig's works published in the Acousmatrix series by BVHAAST ("Music for Human Beings"). It can be obtained from their online store, or from forcedexposure.com. To download
