Life

Mariétan studied with Pierre Boulez, Bernd Alois Zimmermann, Gottfried Michael Koenig, Henri Pousseur and Karlheinz Stockhausen. His earliest works are stylistically determined by the serialism. In the 1960s he turned to improvisation, in the 1970s, he became increasingly interested in the problem of noise pollution.

Mariétan taught from 1969 to 1988 at the University of Paris (I and VIII) and in 1993 at the Ecole d' Architecture de Paris la Villette. He was 1972-1977 Director of the Conservatoire de Garges ( Région parisienne ) and also lectured at the Universities of Lille, Barcelona, ​​Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, San Diego, and at the Ecole Hautes Etudes Sociales Paris, the Ecoles des Beaux- National Supérieures Arts et d'Architecture in Paris, Besançon and Marseilles and the Ecole Polytechnique de Lausanne.
