series of precomposed measures arranged in random eight bar phrases to build the composition each throw of a pair of dice represented an individual measure so after eight throws the first phrase was determined 1796 carillons a sliver of steel shaped polished tempered and then screwed into position so that the projections on a rotating cylinder could pluck at its free extremity were invented 1830

current running dynamos this was the first additive synthesis device the dynamophone was also known as the telharmonium the instrument weighed over 200 tons and was designed to transmit sound over telephone wires however the wires were too delicate for all the signals you can sort of consider him the father of muzak the generators produced pure tones of various frequencies and intensity volume control supplied dynamics articles appeared in mcclure s magazine that stated democracy in music the musician uses keys and stops to build up voices of flute or clarinet as the artist uses his brushes

leon theremin russia invented the aetherophone later called the theremin or thereminovox the instrument used 2 vacuum tube oscillators to produce beat notes musical sounds were created by heterodyning from oscillators which varied pitch a circuit was altered by changing the distance between 2 elements the instrument had a radio antenna to control dynamics and a rod sticking out the side that controlled pitch the performer would move his her hand along the rod to change pitch while simultaneously moving his her other hand in proximity to the antenna many composers used this instrument including varese 1922 darius milhaud b 1892 experimented with vocal transformation by phonograph speed changes ottorino respighi 1879 1936 called for a phonograph recording of nightingales in his pini

percy grainger and burnett cross patented a machine that freed music from the constraints of conventional tuning systems and rhythmic inadequacies of human performers mechanical invention for composing free music used eight oscillators and synchronizing equipment in conjunction with photo sensitive graph paper with the intention that the projected notation could be converted into sound 1947 bell labs developed and produced the solid state transistor milton babbitt s three compositions for piano serialized all aspects of pitch rhythm dynamics and articulation the solovox and the clavioline were built 1948 john scott trotter built a composition machine for popular music hugh lecaine canada built the electronic sakbutt an instrument that actually sounded like a cello pierre schaeffer b 1910 a sound technician working at radio diffusion television francaise rtf in paris produced several short studies in what he called musique concrete october 1948 schaeffer s early studies were broadcast in a concert of noises joseph schillinger wrote the mathematical basis of the arts 1949 pierre schaeffer and engineer jacques poullin worked on experiments in sound which they

variations on a door and a sigh was composed by pierre henry the rtf studio was formally established as the groupe de musique concrete the group opened itself to other composers including messiaen and his pupils pierre boulez karlheinz stockhausen and george barraque boulez and stockhausen left soon after because schaeffer was not interested in using electronically generated sounds but rather wanted to do everything based on recordings john cage s use of indeterminacy culminated with music of changes a work based on the charts from the i ching the chinese book of oracles structures book ia was one of pierre boulez earliest attempts at employing a small amount of musical material called cells whether for use as pitches durations dynamics or attack points in a highly serialized structure 1951 53 eimert and beyer b 1901 produced the first compositions using electronically generated pitches the pieces used a mechanized device that produced melodies based on markov analysis of stephen foster tunes 1952 the cologne station of nordwestdeutscher rundfunk later westdeutscher rundfunk was founded by herbert eimert he was soon joined by stockhausen and they set out to create what they called elektronische musik john cage s 4 33 was composed the composer was trying to liberate the performer and the composer from having to make any conscious decisions therefore the only sounds in this piece are those produce by the audience 1953robert beyer werner meyer eppler b 1913 and eimert began experimenting with electronically generated sounds eimert and meyer eppler taught at darmstadt summer school germany and gave presentations in paris as well louis and bebe baron set up a private studio in new york and provided soundtracks for sci fi films like forbidden planet 1956 and atlantis that used electronic sound scores otto luening b 1900 usa d 1996 usa and vladimir ussachevsky b 1911 manchuria d 1990 usa present first concert at the museum of modern art in new york october 28 the program included ussachevsky s sonic contours created from piano recordings and luening s fantasy in space using flute recordings following the concert they were asked to be on the today show with dave garroway musicians local 802 raised a fuss because luening and ussachevsky were not members of the musicians union 1953 4 karlheinz stockhausen b 1928 used helmholtz research as the basis of his studie i and studie ii he tried to build increasingly complex synthesized sounds from simple pure frequencies sine waves 1954 the cologne radio series music of our time october 19 used only electronically generated sounds by stockhausen eimert pousseur etc the pieces used strict serial techniques dripsody was composed by hugh lecaine the single sound source for this concrete piece is a drip of water 1955 harry olson and belar both working for rca invent the electronic music synthesizer aka the olson belar sound synthesizer this synth used sawtooth waves that were filtered for other types of timbres the user programmed the synthesizer with a typewriter like keyboard that punched commands into a 40 channel paper tape using binary code the columbia princeton studio started with its beginnings mostly in the living room of ussachevsky and then the apartment of luening lejaren hiller 1924 92 and leonard isaacson from the university of illinois composed the illiac string quartet the first piece of computer generated music the piece was so named because it used a univac computer and was composed at the university of illinois 1955 56 karlheinz stockhausen composed gesang der
