Pierre Boulez (b. 1925), French composer, conductor, and music theorist, is regarded as a leading composer of the post-Webern serialist movement who also embraced elements of aleatory and electronics. Boulez is also one of the twentieth century's most influential conductors, known for extraordinarily precise performances of contemporary works. As a conductor, Boulez has made many notable recordings. In 1996 he won a Grammy for this recording of Debussy's La Mer with the Cleveland Orchestra.
