Sabine Liebner | John Cage | Solo for Piano

In the organizer's words:

As early as the 1950s, John Cage attempted to make the genesis of his compositions dependent on chance procedures. A few years later, this randomness of the compositional process was joined by the practical indeterminacy of performance, which aims to detach the compositional design from the interpretative result.

One of the first compositions in which this principle comes to fruition is the "Concert for Piano and Orchestra". In contrast, the piano part of the "Concert for Piano and Orchestra", which is an independent piece under the title "Solo for Piano", was composed without the use of chance operations.

Experience Liebner's interpretation of Cage's piano works in Cy Twombly's Rosensaal.

The concert accompanies the exhibition "Five Friends. John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, Cy Twombly".
