Recording of Paul Pedersen's Fantasie. This 8 minute, 2-track tape piece was composed in 1967 at the Mc Gill University electronic Music Studio. The work was conceived as a multimedia presentation using 3 projectors with hand painted slides by the Montreal artist Gino Bielanski. The piece is in 15 sections, which are synchronized with the fifteen slides used in the centre projector. Pitch organization in the work is centered on a 9 pitch series between 77 and 2335 Hz with successive pitches 200 Mels apart. Two sections involve the use of the Shephard Scale. The basic sound sources used are limited to white noise, sine and square waves. Much of the synthesis of the work was done using the channel Spectrogram developed by Dr. Hugh Le Caine of the National Research Council of Canada.

Recording of Bogusław Schäffer's Symphonie. Both in its original conception and in its accomplishment, of which a considerable part of the credit goes to Mr. Bohdan Mazurek, sound engineer of a remarkable creative experience, the Symphony comprising four parts, presented, in accordance with the idea of ​​the composer, of the structural arrangements, techniques, transposition processes, time relationships and aesthetic and auditory principles which vary from part to part. The work in the studio was made from a score which did not have to take account of the sound situations, but which had to constitute a bridge between the composer and the director, sound engineer. The diagram of the Symphony constituted a system of signs offering a rather distant relation to their musical representation, conventional signs, homologous to a certain extent only to the unfolding of the work. The following electronic devices were used in the composition of the song: sound generators, square wave generators, sawtooth wave generators, white noise generator, pulse generator, filters, ring modulator and amplitude discriminator. The work on the Symphony in stereo was completed in the spring of 1966.

Recording of Jean-Claude Risset's Little Boy computer suite for tape. The piece draws on various sound synthesis experiences that I did between 1964 and 1968, working with Max Mathews at Bell Laboratories. These experiences are described in particular in my 1969 sound catalog, which presents a recording of various synthesized sounds with the synth "scores" of these sounds: these scores are both production recipes and exhaustive descriptions of the sound. microstructure of sounds, just as a score describes the combination of various sounds. The Suite is part of a music composed for the play Little Boy by Pierre Halet (Editions du Seuil, Paris 1968), music which also includes vocal and instrumental sections. The theme of the play is the bombing of Hiroshima, relived through the fantasies of pilot Eatherly. In the Suite, the action is condensed into three parts. During the first, Flight and Countdown, the dream of the flight to Hiroshima is accompanied by moving textures, pierced by two fugitive episodes (jazz, gong) then the countdown of the bomb drop, chanted with the rigor of a metronome. In the second part, Chute, the sound travels among various rockets in the great circles of an indefinite descent: indeed the pilot …

Recording of Boguslaw Schaeffer's Symphonie. "Towards the end of 1964, I began work on a large format electronic work. From the beginning, I called it Symphony, not to obey the spirit of contradiction, which is a way of creating a long time out of use, but being convinced that this name is likely to new applications, there especially where it is a matter of simultaneously resonating a sound matter of very disparate origin, thus proceeding by symphonic means. That was our idea of departure. Yet, already in the course of composition, I suffered the magic of the adopted denomination, so that at the end of a certain time I ended up asking myself to write a work of a structure, a format and a symphonic emotional message. Therefore, the essential problem was not to use the electronic language to express only traditional musical ideas, but rather to proceed by truly electronic means without ever going beyond the framework. Moreover, it was a question of rediscovering auditory laws, of developing new means of expression from an electronic mode of thinking and proceeding. Both in its original conception and in its accomplishment, of which a considerable share of merit belongs to Mr. …
