Guide to 100 Contemporary Music Records Published

Pierre Gervasoni's book "La musique contemporaine en 100 disques" serves as a listening guide to contemporary music recordings. The work presents a selection of compositions from the mid-1970s to early 21st century, each entry referencing a specific record. It covers well-known composers like Boulez, Stockhausen, and Ligeti, as well as lesser-known figures such as Isabel Mundry, Olivier Greif, Betsy Jolas, and Mark-Anthony Turnage. The author organizes the guide into four access modes: historical benchmarks, panoramic syntheses, intuitive profiles, and spiritual quintessences. The book is reviewed by Jérôme Lebrun in artpress.
