NEW MUSIC FORUM 2025 - AVAILABLE PIECES
Program
New Music Forum 2025 | An Open Cage
Featured Composer: John Cage
11–26 November, Ljubljana
The sixth concert — “Available Forms” — traces the developmental trajectory of experimental music: from Webern’s meticulously crafted miniatures, which already hint at an interest in silence and highly structured form, through Cage’s conceptual questioning of sound and time, Feldman’s exploration of subtle sonic nuances, and Earle Brown’s introduction of “available forms” as flexible, responsive structures. Witold Lutosławski and James Tenney continue this lineage of contemporary interpretations of Cage’s influence — Tenney dedicating his work to Cage’s memory while simultaneously elaborating his own aesthetic principles, which bridge historical innovation with modern musical thought.
