The record features a realization of Cage's \u003ci\u003eFontana Mix \u003c\/i\u003efor magnetic tape, Berio's \u003ci\u003eVisage\u003c\/i\u003e for magnetic tape, based on the voice of Cathy Berberian and other sounds, and Mimaroglu's \u003ci\u003eAgony.\u003c\/i\u003e The striking cover, with electronic designs in shocking pink on black, has been signed in silver by Cage. Cover in very good condition with a notation in ink on the verso, LP near mint.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eComposed in 1958 and premiered in 1959, \u003ci\u003eFontana Mix\u003c\/i\u003e was one of several works in which Cage experimented with the relatively new technology of magnetic tape, as well as with compositional methods of \"indeterminacy.\" Using a similar system of notation to his \u003ci\u003eConcert for Piano and Orchestra\u003c\/i\u003e, the work requires the performer to superimpose a set of transparencies containing dots and grids to create a score, which can then be performed with any instrument or combination of instruments. This innovation was one of Cage's many important contributions to avant-garde and electronic music, including blurring the distinctions between music, found sounds, and silence; using altered instruments; and introducing randomness into his compositions (aleatoric music.) Although he was not the first to use magnetic tape to create musical works in the 1950's, his works for magnetic tape were an influence on other avant-garde composers, notably Luciano Berio.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46093553893535,"sku":"14541","price":375.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/4826\/7423\/files\/John_Cage_SIgned_LP_14541a.jpg?v=1722188801","url":"https:\/\/www.schubertiademusic.com\/products\/14541-cage-john-berio-luciano-mimaroglu-ilhan-electronic-music-signed-lp","provider":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
