Descriptions, Reviews, &c.

New UK issue the premiere recording of this historic work, originally issued by Dial Records in 1951 performed by Maro Ajemian; later reissued by CRI, but long unavailable on that label. "This vintage recording dates from the early '50s when nothing like it had ever been heard before and is the perfect introduction to Cage. Sonatas and Interludes for Prepared Piano is John Cage's magnum opus. This is the first recording of this work, played by the Armenian pianist Maro Ajemian over 50 years ago, when the music was new and shocking. It still is." -Él Records
