Electronic music became possible thanks to the discovery of sound capture, and the invention of the telephone, in 1876. The gramophone, later, allowed artists such as Edgard Varèse to understand, and then explore, the possibility of sound alteration and deformation.
However, the certified and stated date of the birth of electronic music is 1948, when RTF broadcasted Pierre Schaeffer's « concerts of noises ». This broadcasts, as Schaeffer`s own thoughts and studies of what he called musique concrète, allowed for a studio to be created, the « Groupe de Musique Concrète », as named and established in 1951. In the 50s, this studio was a powerfull creative force and produced such artistic landmarks as Schaeffer's « Symphonie pour un homme seul », which was the aesthetic birth of electronic music, and Varèse's « Déserts », among others.
