Colette Mourey

A Path of Composer Colette Mourey

The book "A Path of Composer: From Atonality to Hypertonality" retraces, in a very personal way, the process that led the composer first to writing, then from atonality to "hypertonality" (2008). It is through the figure of the spiral, generalized, the expanded functionality and the reintroduction of acoustic consonance that these hypertonal architectures are defined: fundamentally algorithmic, halfway between analogy and discursiveness. Colette Mourey is a guitarist, musicologist - associate professor emeritus at the University of Franche-Comté, and composer, born in 1954. She has won several International Prizes ("Music and Earth," 2012, 3 Prizes, from the IBLA Foundation: 2012, 2013 and 2014) and several World selections, thanks to the "Fondazione Adkins Chiti: Donne in Musica," for " Abacus,"" Quintetto La Maestria,"" 3 Variations on the European Anthem ..".
