John Cage
 (1912-1992)
Rauschenberg

• 1) Melody and Harmony
• 2) Sound and Silence
• 3) Beats and Rhythm
Aleatory (Chance) Music
Imaginary Landscape no. 4 (1951)
Is this music?

1. Yes
2. No
3. I really can’t decide.
0’00’’ (1962)




“In a situation with maximum amplification,
         perform a disciplined action.”
Aria (1958)
Does Cage’s music relinquish
all control to the performer?


1. Yes
2. No
Fontana Mix (1958)
The score consists of 10 sheets of paper and 12 transparencies. The sheets
                          of paper have drawings of 6
       differentiated (in thickness and texture) curved lines. 10 of the
transparencies have randomly distributed points (the amounts of points on
   the transparencies are 7, 12, 13, 17, 18, 19, 22, 26, 29 and 30). Another
   transparency has a grid, measuring two by ten inches, and the last one
                      contains a straight line (10¾ inch).

   By superimposition the performer creates a structure from which a
 performance score can be made: One of the transparencies with dots is
placed over one of the sheets with curved lines. Over this one places the
grid. A point enclosed in the grid is connected with a point outside, using
 the straight line transparency. Horizontal and vertical measurements of
  intersections of the straight line with the the grid and the curved line,
               create a time-bracket and actions to be made.
