Boulez biographer has died
mainA familiar voice on Radio France and France Musique, Dominique Jameux has passed away at the age of 76.
Aside from a semi-official hagiolatry of Pierre Boulez, he wrote excellent works on Alban Berg and Richard Strauss.
And a book about the Italian cyclist, Fausto Coppi.
He knew how to present on the radio what lister considered difficult works. Thanks to him I learnt dodecaphonism and that sort of things!

He was unable to be banal. An outstanding personality of radio. We shall miss him.
