Discography of Pierre Henry

by Ed Maurer with the assistance of John W. Clark.

This page is dedicated to cataloging the commercially produced VINYL recordings of French artist Pierre Henry. It is not intended to provide a history or critical analysis of Pierre Henry's work, except for the occasional blast off when I get excited. For an introduction to Pierre Henry, I recommend reading the June 1997 issue of The Wire (45-46 Poland Street, London W1V 3DF, UK. Telephone 0171 439 6422). There are a couple of sites that publish interviews with M. Henry: EST and Perfect Sound Forever.

This page is not complete, and may never be complete. If you have a recording or variation of a pressing that is not listed here, please contact me so that I may include it. Many thanks to all of the people who have contributed information.

There were many different pressings of some of the Philips records in several different countries and with varying label colors. In my never-ending quest for completeness, I will attempt to catalog them all. The Philips prospective 21e siècle series had more than one pressing. For more details on this series check out my discography.

Last but not least, I occasionally have Pierre Henry records for sale. Check here for my sale/trade list.
