Of Note for Thursday, April 23: John Cage's Sound Manifesto

KUAF

Published April 23, 2015 at 9:36 AM CDT

Iconoclast 20th century composer John Cage infamously stated that everything and nothing was music. UA music professor Er-Gene Kahng and composer Ryan Cockerham explore Cage's "Variations" in a live setting as part of Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art's next Art Night Out Saturday, April 25, in their second installment of the Fuse New Music Series. Tune in to Thursday's program for my conversation with Kahng and Cockerham about this weekend's concert.
