March 2022 – Gyroscope Review
So one of the rare good things in lockdown was that I finally got to fulfil an ambition by taking part in a performance of John Cage’s “4:33”. It was organised online by Red Note Ensemble, with guests, and I was not-playing the treble recorder. And the poem I wrote about the experience is in the Spring 2022 edition of Gyroscope Review.
(John Cage’s score in proportional notation, which I used in the performance, can be seen online at https://hyperallergic.com/85779/the-original-john-cage-433-in-proportional-notation-19521953/)
