Complete Music for Prepared Piano

Album by John Cage & Giancarlo Simonacci

Complete Music for Prepared Piano is a collection of John Cage’s works for prepared piano, composed primarily in the 1940s within an experimental 20th‑century classical idiom. It employs the prepared piano technique, placing objects such as screws, bolts and rubber on the strings to produce percussive, unconventional timbres.
