Pierre Henry (9 December 1927 – 5 July 2017) was a French composer, considered a pioneer of the musique concrète genre of electronic music. Pierre Henry was born in Paris, France, and began experimenting at the age of 15 with sounds produced by various objects. He became fascinated with the integration of noise into music. He studied with Nadia Boulanger, Olivier Messiaen, and Félix Passerone at the Paris Conservatoire from 1938 to 1948 (Dhomont 2001). <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Pierre+
