Music Of Changes – David Tudor
CD (Item 614619) Hat Hut (Switzerland), 1956 — Condition: New Copy
The first release of a groundbreaking performance – David Tudor's 1956 recording of "Music Of Changes" – one of John Cage's first experiments of writing based around the I Ching! The work is based heavily on chance – following charts of possibilities put together by Cage, and extrapolated dramatically by Tudor – who was, at the time, one of the few pianists who really understood Cage's impulses – and could bring them to fruition with a performance like this! © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
