John Cage - In a Landscape (1948)
Vložit
- čas přidán 18. 08. 2024
- “In a Landscape” for solo piano or harp is a composition written by the American avant-garde composer John Cage, dedicated to the dancer Louise Lippold and set to her choreography. The piece floats and wanders like an ethereal dream, in an apparent reference to Erik Satie’s music. It is much more mellifluous than many of Cage’s other more experimental works. Throughout the entire composition, both the damper and sustain pedals are to be held until the very last measure.
Date: 1948
Dedicatee: Louise Lippold
Performer: Tim Ovens on piano

Such a great, meditative minimalistic piece. Also perfect for relaxed sightreading.
I love the athmosphere this creates.
This was before Cage went fully madlad and started making pieces that last 639 years
Cage had that sigma grindset
The piece you are referring to is called ASLSP and the tempo marking is As Slow As Possible. Cage intended for the performer to pick the tempo, and I doubt he ever considered that anyone would attempt to make it last that long. A church in Switzerland decided, after Cage's death, to start a performance of the work that would last for over 600 years with the ending timed to coincide with JS Bach's 1000th birthday.. Cage would have probably been supportive of the concert, but it was not his original conception of the work. I own a recording of the work that is only about 20 minutes long.
normally that piece is only like 20 minutes

Come to Brazil
Oh, i love this

ahahahahahahaha
An absolutely fascinating piece. Thanks so much for posting.
Coming from "Changes" to this is like coming in from the rain and taking a warm bath. Both are enjoyable, but one is much more comfortable
凄く綺麗な曲ですね。
I like that despite returning to that ethereal sound, you can still feel the heaviness from the tone shift in the piece like the notes are still dragging.
Am I the only one who hears Debussy and kind of a bit of Satie in this?
Anche io li sento 🙂
Satie
A little bit, perhaps.
Not at all. It’s a good catch actually. It has the contemplative ethereal imagery of Debussy and it was tributed to Satie, Cage’s hero.
Idem!
Weirdly, I like listening to this, and right after the Reverie by Debussy. It feels like a nice crossover for some reason
what was that?!?!?!

@@EmeraldPixelGamingEPG NEEEEJ
I've played Reverie!! What a beautiful piece
Beautiful and reflective
When you want to hear elevator music from the comfort of your own home. Groundbreaking.
І це по-своєму прекрасно!

Это прекрасно
1948... Impresive...
Thank you for sharing!♥
My favorite!
Beautiful
Cage was amazingly ahead of his time. While his contemporaries were gaining recognition and fame for sub-par derivative works, he was writing pieces like this; so unflinchingly minimalist and honest to his personal artistic vision. He knew as well as anyone that his sublime music would not garner him anything close to the fame and fortune bestowed upon the popular artists in the early 20th century but persisted regardless. Now over 70 years later we are privileged to be able to enjoy the ingenuity of his music.
This particular piece is one of my favourites... it's easy to become lost in its atmosphere of contemplation
Sub-par derivative works, e.g. conservative composers like Rachmaninoff?
@@yanpengtheman Ridiculous comment. Rachmaninoff was 40 years older than Cage and died in 1943, 5 years before this piece was written.

This is beautiful
For those who don't know, this piece was also one of Cage's greatest experiments. He wanted to write a piece that would not represent him at all. So he used some sort of an ancient Chinese book that I don't know the name of as a guide, and every note of this piece comes from the book's instructions (the instructions have nothing to do with music, he just tried to interpret them in a musical way) and voila. He did a pretty good job I'd say. And this is a great piece.
The book is the I-Ching, and Cage used it to write many pieces, such as Music of changes, but he didn't use the I-Ching to write this. It is more a tribute to Cage's hero Satie.
What I found interesting is that his pitch content is actually dependent on register, basically B is natural on the upper register and flat on the lower register. It gives this otherwise very tranquil piece a bit of spice, a bit of intrigue. Speaks volumes about nuance in handling dissonance.
@@karlpoppins tbh im not a huge fan of that. it's a unique artistic decision, but for some reason i didn't really like it that much.
@@onegathers wait really? that's what they told us at music school... maybe they're wrong... idk.
@@LeChapeauMusic He did this with other works of his, but not this
magnificent
I prefer xenakis

8:55 NOOOO HOW WILL I DO SOUNDING WHILE PLAYING THE PIANO NOWWW NOOO NAWWWWW
I so love Richard Clayderman 🥰
this has a surprisingly similar theme and pacing to some of C418's ambient music for Minecraft
You mean to say that C418's ambient music for Minecraft has a surprisingly similar theme and pacing to this!
@@JamesSmithCZcams I'm just making an objective comparison, I mean ofc this came first
Honest to God I was literally looking for a comment like this 🤣🤣🤣
Came here from Guess the Score
Saving for later: 3:00
Interesting work; didn’t expect it from Cage
Amazingly tranquil! Anybody know pieces like this or composers who wrote like this?
Arvo Pärt?
John Cage also wrote piece called "Dream" in the same year in similar aestethics.
@@sew88sew88 Thanks for the suggestion! Will definitely listen.
Erik Satie / Gymnopédies
Erik Satie, "Gnosiennes", Yann Tiersen's output,, Morton Feldman's late piano works ("Triadic Memories", "Palais de Mari", "For Bunita Marcus"), Gija Kancheli and many others.
ello its me
only 1 dislike: the devil
If you played this on a harp, what would you do with the ending, where you hold down some keys to make a chord out of harmonics? Just play the chord normally?
you will not play ot with harp... :) it's a piano piece, I don't think Cage was in this case not concerned about the source. Anyway if I were an harpist I'd play it like harmonics (and yes: on harp it is possible to play chords with harmonics: it's very demanding but possible)
Harps have pedals that operate similarly to the piano’s
4:33
Someone posted this on r/classicalmusic so
so what?
Omage to E Satie?
Nice
mould
Four Tet - 128 Harps sampled this 😏
Anyone else here from marden
maybe
ok elon
Nicely played but you tend to lose the feel of the meter. It becomes just a flow of notes rather than a more articulated pattern of motifs recurring with different metrical emphasis. Anyway just my thought.
"The rhythmic structure of this supremely lyrical work is 15 x 15 measures (5-7-3), following the structure of the Lippold dance for which it was written. The piece is similar to Cage’s Dream, but the fixed gamut of tones is more extensive. Resonances are sustained throughout the composition by using both pedals. The sound of the composition is soft and meditative, reminiscent of the music of Erik Satie."
Oh,that’s where Ruchard D.James has his melodic oeuvre from…😂🤪
Masterpiece! Much much more beautiful than so many fast useless technical ugly piano pieces.
