8. Boulez - Études
Music by Pierre Boulez might not be everyone's cup of tea, but he's one of the most influential composers ever to come from across the Channel. After experimenting with serialism, where the music is made up of an ordered set of 12 notes, he moved on to pioneering electronic compositions, and he's still conducting and composing to this day.
