Musique concrète composer Beatriz Ferreyra releasing new anthology, Canto+

Collecting almost 40 years of work.

Beatriz Ferreyra is releasing a new anthology album, titled Canto+, via Room40.

A key figure within musique concrète scenes, Ferreyra began by working at the Groupe de Recherches Musicales as one of Pierre Schaeffer’s research assistants in 1963.

Whilst there she developed her own research project — Objets Construits (Constructed Objects) — which offered her news ways of conceptualising and manipulating sound.
