Music of Changes

Album by John Cage & David Tudor

Music of Changes is a composition for solo piano by American composer John Cage, composed in 1951. The work employs chance operations drawn from the I Ching to determine musical parameters, producing an indeterminate, texturally varied piano piece that signalled Cage's decisive turn towards aleatoric techniques within post-war experimental music.
First released: 2001
