NOTE: Tracks 04-06 have been removed because they are available on Mix 04.4, part of an amazingly inexpensive, near-comprehensive collection of works by Pierre Henry. So far as I can tell, that collection does not include the original full-length version of Le Voile D'Orphee, so I will continue to make that available here.  Track 03 will fit on one CD with AGP42.

AGP43 is the second of two installments of early out-of-print works by Pierre Henry. It is transcribed from an LP devoted to Pierre Henry in the rare and legendary Philips Prospective 21st Siecle series from the late 1960s and early 1970s. The first side of the LP is devoted to the original, long version of Henry's Voile D'Orphee (written in 1951-53 and described as "probably the first major work of symphonic concrete music"), with the edited version starting the second side. The remaining two tracks are short electroacoustic works from 1960 and 1965. The installment includes a text file containing the liner notes from the LP from which these works were transcribed.
