Description
Music of Changes is a piece for solo piano by John Cage. Composed in 1951 for pianist and friend David Tudor, it was a ground-breaking piece of indeterminate music. The process of composition involved applying decisions made using the I Ching, a Chinese classic text that is commonly used as a divination system. The I Ching was applied to large charts of sounds, durations, dynamics, tempo and densities.
