about

This work, a tribute to the innovation and inspirations of electronic music composer Pierre Henry, is created using acoustic sources and resonance techniques. All of the sounds are created in a manner consistent with the techniques and approaches of Pierre Henry and are, in a sense, pure musique concrète. Typical tape-music techniques of speed change, reversal, splicing, and juxtaposition are combined with high feedback resonance filtering techniques. The materials are spatialized in stereo using the SPAT Revolution system of IRCAM.

Robert Scott Thompson is a composer of instrumental and electroacoustic music and is Professor of Music Composition at Georgia State University in Atlanta. He is the recipient of several prizes and distinctions for his music including the First Prize in the 2003 Musica Nova Competition, the First Prize in the 2001 Pierre Schaeffer Competition and awards in the Concorso Internazionale "Luigi Russolo", Irino Prize Foundation Competition for Chamber Music, and Concours International de Musique Electroacoustique de Bourges - including the Commande Commission 2007. His work has been presented in festivals such as the Koriyama Bienalle, Helsinki Bienalle, Sound, Présences, Synthèse, Sonorities, ICMC, SEAMUS and the Cabrillo Music Festival, and broadcast on Radio France, BBC, NHK, ABC, WDR, and NPR. His music is published on numerous solo recordings and compilations by EMF Media, Neuma, Drimala, Capstone, Centaur, Hypnos, Oasis/Mirage, Groove, Lens, Space for Music, Zero Music, Twelfth Root, Relaxed Machinery and Aucourant record labels, among others.
