Song Books

Album by John Cage & Loré Lixenberg & Gregory Rose & Robert Worby

Song Books are a set of experimental vocal pieces that collapse the boundary between music, theatre and chance-based composition, using indeterminate instructions and extended vocal techniques. They probe the nature of performance, language and silence and exemplify the avant-garde's interrogation of authorship and notation.
