(the timing on the cover is wrong, I just checked the CD and that track is 19:29)

This disc desperately needs to be reissued: not only this outstanding Prologue but also the only commercial recording available of Jour, Contre-Jour.
"I don't at all mind actively disliking a piece of contemporary music, but in order to feel happy about it I must consciously understand why I dislike it. Otherwise it remains in my mind as unfinished business."

I'd already asked on symphonyshare if anyone can upload it, without knowing that it had the electronic version of the prologue from Espaces Acoustiques. I know it's an important disc in the history of spectral music.  I wasn't aware at all of the Ensemble Itinéraire recording.

Happy to rip both CDs if either of you are interested.

Beautiful photos of Ensemble Intercontemporain, conductor Matthias Pintscher, and soprano Sophie Burgos in Grisey's Quatre chants pour franchir le seuil (1997-98).

Stimulating essay on Grisey and the man/machine dualism here in this recording of Chants d'amour.
