Two new long-awaited releases from French label Ina-GRM. Firstly, the reissue of Bernard Parmegiani’s Violostries, a 6-work double CD dating back from what he calls The Age of Sewing, a “period when scissors helped us calibrate sounds and silences.” Finally, the new CD Labyrinthe! by Pierre Henry, a sound expedition in 10 sequences, premiered at an historical GRM concert in March 2003.
