Modern Composition John Cage

In that piece, Cage was doing something new, which is applauded in most musical fields. He did something people hadn't done like that before, and advanced the ideas of avant-garde music, even if there was no performed music in the piece.
Remember that in making 4'33", Cage meant to have people focus on the sounds that were happening during the time the piece was being "performed." To suggest that people should just kind of "stop and smell the roses," appreciate real-life sounds, that kind of thing, I think that really is art.

You're also not one to talk about 30 years of study of music. what do you mean by that Daniel?

I mean that your criticising composers who have much training (and about whom you know next to nothing - your self-imposed ignorance of 20th c. music has been shown before) carries no weight.
Worry about fixing the errors in your own music before laying into things you don't understand.

I hate Cage by the way, but it is clearly art.

Yes, i think he do, intention, this is insane! This i why i stick to the old!
