‘It’s Very Simple’: 50 Years of Making Avant-Garde Music Sound Effortless
Founded by Pierre Boulez to treat new compositions with orchestral rigor, Ensemble Intercontemporain has honed the art of turning forbidding scores into expressive sound.

I should probably note that the seminar was in the early '80s. We listened to Solti version in class, then all met to watch the PBS/Bayreuth/Boulez production (musically was fine, but I wasn't a fan--Rhinemaidens on a hydroelectric dam=not my thing). I was an operatic newby back then...

www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jO6... you can probably get it in better quality from the public library or something. There's also a Levine/Met production from around 1990 that's more traditional, it's okay. I still think the Solti studio recordings are the way to go but that's me

Honestly though just listen to the Boulez recording from Bayreuth in the 70s. Best recorded one there is.

I wonder if M. Boulez based Ens Intercontemporain on DR Davies' New and Newer Music Ens which was happening at Lincoln Center when he was at the NY Phil?

"Dérive 3" de Pierre Boulez. - Ensemble intercontemporain
Dix ans après la disparition de Pierre Boulez, une œuvre inédite sera entendue pour la première fois le 19 septembre à la Cité de la musique. Retrouvée dans les archives du compositeur, "Dérive 3" sera créée par l’Ensemble intercontemporain et Pierre Bleuse, comme un trait d’union particulièrement symbolique entre Boulez et l’Ensemble qu’il fondait il y a cinquante ans.

i don't know if this was interesting *for the listener* but Cage and Boulez used to do these things where they would pick notes and indications by chance and then have ensembles or solo performers improvise based on those cues. AI could do some of that. but it's "gimmick shit.'
I believe that AI, like any other tool, can and will generate art when used interestingly, and also that almost nobody is using it interestingly yet
this lady on threads posted this big huge thing about how artists are just jealous that everyday people can now use AI to create better art that gets more attention

so i click through to see her “art”…

i wish there was an unveil feature here:
