Janine Charbonnier
Janine Charbonnier (8 June 1926 - 28 May 2022) was a French composer, pianist, and piano teacher. She was born in Paris and married writer Georges Charbonnier.[1][2]
She studied with Pierre Barbaud at the Paris Conservatoire and taught piano for several years. As an algorithmic composer, Charbonnier used mathematical principles and logic to organize the form and musical materials of her works.[3][4] With Barbaud and Roger Blanchard, she co-founded the Groupe de Musique Algorithmique de Paris (GMAP). With the assistance of Bull Centre National Computing Electronics, they produced their first concert of algorithmic music, as part of an art festival at the Rodin Museum in Paris in June 1959.[5][6]
