John Cage: Works for Percussion


Cage:

Second Construction for four players

Imaginary Landscape No. 2

Amores

Double Music

Third Construction

She is Asleep: Quartet for percussion (12 tom-toms)

First Construction in Metal (1939) for seven percussionists


Quatuor Hêlios

The significance of the seven pieces brought together here is that they both generate a striking panorama of the intelligence of the material presented, over a period of four years, from 1939 to 1943, by the composer whom the critic Fred Goldbeck described as “the greatest Giraudouxian of our age”, and clarify in an extraordinarily oblique manner the prehistory of this “automation” of the creative act, towards which one can detect the perpetual temptation in the young Cage.
