Pian
o Music Arranged for
Guitar features five
early and mid-career
compositions by John
Cage, dating from 1933
through 1948, all
arranged for solo guitar
by Aaron Larget-Caplan.
The compositions required
little adjustment from
the originals, mainly in
the form of register
modifications, and fit
very well on the guitar.
All phrase and dynamic
markings follow the
published originals. Very
few left and right hand
fingerings are included
in the publication to
allow the performers
their own realizations.
All of the works retain
their original keys and
are presented in
chronological
order:
Three Easy Pieces
(Round, Duo, Infinite
Cannon)
A
Room
Chess
Pieces
Dream
In A
Landscape
Cage’s
exploration of
contrapuntal music and
simple forms are found
early on in works for two
voices and the use of
unusual phrases lengths.
The later works explore
modes, resonance, and
begin to show influences
of Far East aesthetics in
their spaciousness and
dealings with
time.
The
collection is only the
second work in the Cage
Oeuvre to be published
featuring the guitar, the
first being
Larget-Caplan’s
arrangement of ‘Six
Melodies’ for
violin & guitar
issued in
2015.
A recording dedicated to
John Cage on guitar will
be released in 2018 on
Stone Records Limited
(UK).
