The piece Tellurgy is one of the most important works of the Swiss composer and musician Arthur Pétronio. In 1919 he developed the theory of verbophony, a combination of language and music, of vocal sounds and classical composition. Tellurgy is considered one of the most intensive elaborations and implementations of the principle of verbophony.

The record on which Tellurgy was released came with a 4-page booklet in A3 format.
