Customer Reviews:

Lesser known works of the great John Cage.......2001-07-15

My understanding of how Cage wrote it was through subtraction. The names of each piece are dirived from other compositions and composers, whose works Cage took and subtracted music from. What Cage didn't subtract became the new score, Cage's new compositions.

This method allows Cage to introduce into works in which he plays with the unfamiliar (for Cage) elements of melody and harmony something he is quite familiar with: silence.

The results are fantastic. I only refrain from giving this album a full 5 stars because Cage's works aren't for everyone, but anyone interested in 20th century, avant-garde "classical" works, this album is a necessity.
