Sub Rosa continue its exploration of Henri Pousseur's works with a four-CD series which, along with what has already been released, will cover all his electronic music and his most radical works between 1953 and 1988 - 35 years of research and experiments.

These recordings are a continuation of our earlier releases, namely: Liège à Paris (a piece composed thanks to Luciano Berio and premiered at the grand opening of the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, in 1977 - SR117, 2000), the 8 Études Paraboliques box set (over 220 minutes of music realised in Cologne, 1972, at the WDR's studios - the last étude featuring Stockhausen's participation SR 174, 4 CD's, 2001), and 4 Parabolic Mixes, four takes on the work by Henri Pousseur himself, Robert Hampson (Main), Philip Jeck and Markus Popp (Oval), these variations moving gradually away from the original (SR199, 2 CD's, 2002).
