Introduction

Anestis Logothetis is one of the leading pioneers of 20th century composition and his graphic notation system, developed around 1958, is a milestone in the evolution of musical notation.

The conference aims to gather researchers from all around the world –specialists on Logothetis’ music or young researchers– who are interested in graphic representation of sound and will approach his music and his unique graphic musical notation.
