i've asked :
... or "a piece of music" WITHOUT "a sound" ??? *BWG* ;-)))
John McIntyre kindly answered my request :
John Cage 4:33. The performer sits at a grand piano and opens the lid.
well ... ev'ry lid makes "a sound" when opened , right ??? *sly_grin* ;-)
Four minutes and thirty-three seconds later,
... after takin' a break for a pee , eh !? *LOL* ;-)))
he closes the lid to end the performance.
... & ev'ry lid also makes "a sound" when closed too !!! *another_sly_grin* ;-) btw : such "a performance" NOT necessarily is "a piece of music" , but more of "a silent interlude" to open the ears of the eager listeners , as i suppose !? *G+* ;-) however ... many greetinx , oh jay ;-) ~*~ jvr network program - may 2002 : http://mitglied.lycos.de/cybernetx/program.html ( incl. live stream via internet !!! ;-) studio webcam - live : http://stream.ok-bremen.de/studio.html *G+* ;-) - brand new !!! - radio show archive : http://friends.schallreflektor.com/ohjay/alien_disco ;-) *~\^/~*
