Abstract
Introduced by Xenakis 50 years ago, sieves have proved to be a relevant and robust device for music composition. Examples of complex and symmetric sieves usage in original works are presented along with a few possible applications not explored before. The dichotomy between predetermined abstract structures such as sieves and their actualization through random procedures is discussed and it is also shown that in the hands of a innovative musician, sieves not only serve the craft aspect of composing but could also reveal as well as impact deeper levels of thinking.
