Computer Suite from Little Boy (1968) by Jean-Claude Risset was the first piece that made me feel that all the work I put into music programs and particularly into MUSIC V was worth it. The timbres, both the completely new ones and the more traditional, have a richness and beauty that I had never before heard in computer music. Most of the timbres depended on the results of the seminal research on timbre which Jean-Claude did at Bell Labs during the two periods in the 1960s when he worked there as part of his graduate studies in physics.
