Montse Maján Martínez

I had a thought
once
But I forgot what
it was
as I watched
a heron fly
beneath the sky
and out into the bay
as time disolved
into the setting sun
reflected on the water
evaporating into the sky
to become a cloud come the morning.

As I searched
my mind
the sea
to find the thought that I thought I had forgot
Startlingly
I remembered that I was thinking
and therefore alive
And that leaves
blown out to the sea
are not as important
as the wind that
blows them there

or the sunrise

come the dawn
.

I just lay down in bed and had the inexplicable urge to listen to this song again for the first time in months. Searched this piece up and read up on him, and today turned out to be the anniversary of his death. Probably a coincidence, but it gave me a strange feeling, as if I had been drawn to this by something. I have goosebumps…

this is synchronicity.

I find it amazing how melodic pieces such as this and "In a Landscape" were composed by the same person who embraced atonality, experimentation and of course silence.

John Milton Cage,Jr. was an American avant-garde composer whose inventive compositions and unorthodox ideas profoundly influenced 20th century music. Cage's most iconic work ,4'33 called the "silent piece" conceptualized his idea that there is no such thing as silence. Cage' work is both thought provoking and caries a eerie haunting ability.

"Everything we do is music"
~John Milton Cage,Jr. (1912-1992)

This is one of my favorite peice's from him.

La Sean G. And yet so many have fatefully said "where's the music?" in response to a myriad of his works.

@Anthony Leigh Dunstan Beauty is in the ear of the beholder .

I love it when musicians use emptiness (breaks) in their pieces and I've known 4'33 for a while but looking at it in the context of other works of him such as these (which i am discovering now) makes 4'33 a lot more serious and meaningful to me.

@CAW You'd enjoy Monk.

********************

A lot of John Cage's work seems to make people irrationally angry. That's a sure sign that he was a genius
