Daphne Oram’s An Individual Note was first published in 1972 and is a playful yet compelling manifesto for the dawn of electronic music, from a time when the world was just starting to engage with the possibilities provided by emerging audio technologies.
Her approach was both innovative and inspiring, encouraging anyone with an interest in music to think about the nature, capabilities and possibilities that the new sounds could bring.
This new edition of An Individual Note features a specially commissioned introduction from the British composer, performer, roboticist and sound historian Sarah Angliss.
