Written between the late '30s and the early '90s, these pieces by John Cage here acquire the permanence they deserve. Some have never been published before. Many appeared only in magazines, journals, and catalogues; others in concert programs and on record covers. Also included are the texts of lectures and - of crucial importance to the appreciation of his music - Cage's notes on the performance of his compositions, courtesy of his music publisher, C.F. Peters.
