Paul Sacher Foundation looks after Jonathan Harvey estate

This means that Harvey's creative documents in Basel are now available for musicological research. The collection offers comprehensive documentation of the musician. It provides insights into his extensive musical oeuvre, his far-reaching experiments in the fusion of traditional instruments and electro-acoustic sound sources, some of which were realized with the help of IRCAM in Paris, as well as his unusual, sometimes Buddhist-inspired aesthetic as a whole.

In addition to Harvey's music manuscripts (sketches, drafts and fair copies), his writings on music (including his book on Stockhausen), correspondence and numerous sound recordings form the main part of the collection, according to the Sacher Foundation's press release.
