Featured Contributor / Collaboratrice invitée : Gayle Young

[FR] Les directeurs des premiers studios de musique électronique au Canada ne consultaient pas des catalogues en ligne pour ensuite commander des instruments et des appareils produits commercialement lorsqu’ils concevaient ces studios; ils se rendaient Ottawa pour rencontrer Hugh Le Caine, dont les conceptions novatrices en matière d’instruments électroniques ont eu une influence importante sur les premières générations de compositeurs de musique électronique canadiens.
