His first full lenght album, rerely offered for sale. The title given to this collection of sound poems of Henri Chopin is quite representative of its contents: 3 long audio-poems, composed between 1958 and 1968, proposing a wider definition of poetry than the traditional one. They also represent the apex of Chopin's activities spanning over a complex researche in several fields voice recording techniques, sound spatialisation and publishing, with the magazines Cinquième Saison and OU, which for more than ten years, since 1963, was the only publication to report the current developments of sound poetry. 1 copy available
