Michel Fano's work influenced me when I read about it in articles on avant garde film scoring. His languages and ways of working with the sometimes 'histoires à tiroirs' of filmmaker Alain Robbe-Grillet are unusual and interesting. Few of the films he's scored have been released commercially. I saw his 'sound scores' in Trans Europe Express (1966) by arranging a private screening at the BFI library and L'Eden et après (1970) and learned new ways a composer could approach composing to film. Michel Fano was, at the same time as Pierre Boulez, a pupil of Olivier Messiaen's.
