Here is a book that addresses many issues, providing many answers. Fruit of numerous years of teaching, the book is of course first intended for students of electroacoustic composition, describing in detail the myriad techniques they must master in order to become fluent in the acousmatic language. But it will also provide musicologists with precious analytical tools, while furnishing simple music lovers keys to listening that will allow them to gain access to musical works that may have before seemed impenetrable.

(Francis Dhomont)

Annette Vande Gorne (born 1946 in Charleroi) is a Belgian electroacoustic music composer currently living in Ohain, Belgium.

She moved to Paris in order to study at the conservatoire with Schaeffer and Reibel.
