Pierre Henry's 'Carnet de Venise' in his own fashion recreates the soundscape of the City of Doges, juxtaposed with the shifting harmonies of Monteverdi madrigals. His use of source material - like the sound of splashing fountains, children's voices, the ringing of bells, the rubbing of mooring cables, that he collected on site (from Torcello to the Old Ghetto, with stops in San Marco or Giudecca) then manipulated and edited together - demonstrates the bold poetic language of this pioneer of musique concr�te.
