She nailed it!
I agree, she didn't screw it up one bit.
pun intended?
f
oh my god...
😂😂😂 yes the nail
I love this piece. It's got a funky groove and you can dance to it.
I agree!
I agree !!! Of course!!!!
Yeah look at those rhythm displacements, funk as hell!!
Om

Sounds like the music from many cultures put into one. Very cool composition.
Yup! Cage wrote this after he heard gamalan music.
Cage was probably trying to write a piece on piano and when the inspiration didn't come he just said: "Ah, screw it!".
i don't think you got the joke
I meant, that's like EVERY song. Wrong post.
no, he found beautiful new ways to compose piano music that has a far more meditated and transient emotional experience than what has come before
ahahaha very clever comment
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
John Cage is usually too "out there" for me, but this has an odd charm to it. I like the bell qualities on some of the notes and the repetition is actually somewhat soothing.
This really forces you to read and play what is written and not what your brain wants you to hear. This would be a great way to teach you how to read music.
Great way to not be able to get perfect pitch too!
there's a thing called muscle memory lol
Archie mac FUCK IT

John Cage would be absolutely amazed at the rate digital music has progressed that you can create any sound and synchronise into the music. There's no need to use nails anymore.
he'd probably dig Aphex Twin
@@peterhammel3799 I prefer Terminal 11
Ah, but ain't it more fun to just randomly try stuff and hear what you get? Half of "The Wild Bull" by Subotnick was experiments that he liked and saved. Looks like he got the thread about 2/3rds into it. My own prepared piano was fun times--random and recorded. My quarter tone synth stuff is fun too, random and recorded -- after all, even music we know is different each time because WE are different listeners than we were yesterday.
sure but this is more fun
Cage was not just interested in getting a certain sound, he was about curating objects within his immediate field and showing that everything is music... so in that sense he would still be interested in "using nails"
Bach looks down on us in confusion
NotaVoltorb Bach is looking away from it!
I honestly think he would be intrigued by this.
@@excuseyou7198 looking at this again 3 years later, I bet he would find some enjoyment in it. Its definitely unique at the very least
Nonsense, this is a perfectly clear piece
Bach may look down on you. He'll see Cage as an equal, if he's not being an idiot.
Reminds me of Indonesian traditional music.
@@kreuner11 Cage was greatly inspired by the music of the Indonesian Gamelan, so yes it is indonesian traditional music in a way.
As an indonesian i can confirm
Gamelan?
@@nathanstutoring its a instrument
gamelan.yes
Parece um samba brasileiro. Uma música para capoeira. Maravilha! It's like a Brazilian samba. A song for capoeira. Wonderful!
0:00 “hmm?”
xD
XD 😂
I like how the sound of the piano sounds distorted, yet the piece still sounds great the way it is put together
Beautifully performed, a pleasure to listen and watch!
So, after listening to lots of pieces by Schönberg and some others in music lessons, it was a big pleasure to hear anything that isn't completely crazy... And although this is a new sound to hear and Cage definitly not pleases everyone I am a big fan of this piece and his 4'33
That paino's screwed.
I see what you did there
Your spelling is more screwed.
#PETP People for the ethical treatment of pianos
People eating tasty pianos
I'm actually working on a video on John Cage's sonatas and in the disclaimer I say, "Don't try this at home kids. Have a trained professional assist you in preparing your piano"
@@GenericGoogleAccount Pianos eating tasty people
@@Edgelordess I ask, where to get the "trained piano preparer"? And I otherwise must disagree! What's an instrument for except to mess with it? I randomly prepared pianos twice in my life and recorded straight away with wild and satisfying results. Experiment! Why bother to play Cage? Do your own stuff! I'm sure that's what all composers would say.
@@micahslobcrud5958 I mean, I would get more creative experimenting like this. Not to mention, it would be more fun.
Super cool and fun to listen to. For about 5 minutes....once you’re ears start to realize the color never changes it gets old really fast
Sort of like an unprepared piano.
Just of like an unprepared piano
Jim P no, an ‘unprepared’ piano can channel the roar of a steam train or the twinkle of a music box. Please think before you type
The piece is less than 2 minutes 😂
Good thing it's only 1:39 then
This, ASLSP & 4’33 are some amazing masterpieces
It sounds like bongos
I know I kinda wanna add some latin strings to it.
Sorta sounds like a steel drum to me for some reason.
Yes I agree
naa...Gamelan. 👹
@@lex3729 Totally right, John Cage was listening to a lot of music from different parts of the world. I've also hear that most of the extended techniques in music, very popular in avant-garde jazz for example, came from Asia (or at least they made similar stuff years before in occident they even started to play with it).
*This on a piano*
Some people: ThiS iSnT MmuSIc
*exactly this but allegedly on bongos and oriental string instruments*
Same people: Most interesting indeed, intricate musical textures right here.
Same people: mOdErN MuSiC sUcKs
This music sounds line shit
This just feels wrong to do to a piano.
Damn you really owned that imaginary person in your head bro
Love this!
I simultaneously don’t like them but like it at the same time
There needs to be a setting on keyboards where you can play like this! This awesome!
Beautiful.
I Love it!!
for those wondering why the piano called prepared, it's basically preparation for going to trash😑 it's like you can't simply throw it to wasteland, you've got to prepare it for the last trip
Outstanding ❤❤❤❤❤
That was incredible!
Sounds pretty nice. Like a xylophone with a more string-y timbre. In some parts it also sounds like a bell.
Well done, Ms. Ferreira. Brava!
I actually like this one
Same
Best version!👏👏👏
Super. J’adore.
this is a whole other level of good :)
The best rendition I have seen on youtube, good stuff!
Sounds eerie to me. Very jolting, although I guess that's the point of the prepared piano. I love it 👍
Großartig!
Great performance !
catch me headbanging to this in tha club
SUCH A BOP
I love this one, it’s so funky
I love it! Can't you see the fun in it? I think Bach himself would have enjoyed it for a change of pace. Thanks for playing it. ~H~
Amazing
Oh yes it is BOOTYFUL
Great sound!)
Sounds awesome ngl
Muito bacana!
It actually sounds nice wow..
Hermosa pieza
Pinanood ko to dahil sa music namin🙂
Excellent piece. One cannot tell that no pianos were injured during the performance tho.
awesome
Probably the most famous of cage’s prepared piano pieces
the difference between a good performer and a great performer is all about how they prepare. ;)
You murdered it.
Chill, the piano is going to be fine.
@@excuseyou7198 i meant in a good way
@@excuseyou7198 i love that tune you did well
@@bobobobbybooboo7848 what? What are you talking about?
When you cant buy a gamelan but you can buy a grand
This sounds really cool
Thank you Reggie
Really pretty good
Man, this is so cool.
It’s definitely related to gamelan
カッコいい
What an interesting idea!
I love prepared piano music !
Excelente interpretacion, alcanza las entrelineas conceptuales y musicales q John Cage queria q se captaran en su musica,mas alla de lo obvio, muy bien, felicidades...
I like this
Very nice performance and interpretation of the piece!
if I were in one of those playhouse things, but it was abandoned, and I started hearing this, I'd start screaming
Bro this shit goes so hard 💀💀
There's screws in the piano
No shit
That’s what prepared piano is
Nailed it.
Love this, Inara! This is Seba from Lynn Uni
The genre is Prepared piano , and if im not mistaken john cage was asked to write a piece for an africsn culture ? And they wanted drums and stuff in the piece but the room they were in didn't have enough space so he stuck erasers , screws little plastic things that you can have on bread onto the piano and made diffrent sounds which wad never dont before. And thats how Sonatas and Interludes for Prepared Piano was made.
Yall i just remember from Music Appriciation lol
African*
brilliant
an uncaged masterpiece... to be sure! pray an american prayer for this piano.
GRANDE BRO
This sounds like it could be in a horror game and I love it
surely an horror movie for every piano tuner (with the strings disalligned after the pressure of nails and screws)
crazy! gamelan influence
Thanks for playing that, it was cool
Sounds like a cross between traditional Asian Island percussion and baroque harpsichord, said Mozzy.
Oh bro this is hard as f. First time listening to cage. I see the inspiration for afx drukq tracks easy peasy
good!
Why do I have to be weird and love this
0:01 man why isnt that a main riff to a avant Garde pop song!!
Makes me want to steal it
Tom Waits get on it
I really like the percussiveness
I like this.
Wowww you can Play the Gamelan In your piano this is Impressing :O
Top
nice
Wooooow Wooooow
🌹💖🤗🏵️🌸🌼🤩💯
Tigga tigga tooga tigga tigga tooga!
probably the john cage piece that goes the hardest
What I'd like to know is if they have a piano separated for specifically this piece or do they put in and take out the nuts and bolts each time someone wants to play
I wonder that too
John va más allá....
It's so weird, yet it's also very interesting tho
S/o Malhaire for showing me this 🔥🔥
It's how a more analogic sound synthesis, i think.
Is it just me or is there also an eraser on the piano -1:28
I think that’s an eraser?
Are those flatheads or phillips?
The best part of this comes @1:39
Kinda reminds me of Tom Waits and some old video game music
It s on Aleatoric Music right?
