Robison) Newsgroups: net.music.classical Subject: My favorite story about the cage piece for radios Message-ID: <880@eosp1.UUCP> Date: Mon, 14-May-84 17:43:46 EDT Article-I.D.: eosp1.880 Posted: Mon May 14 17:43:46 1984 Date-Received: Wed, 16-May-84 03:11:40 EDT Organization: Exxon Office Systems, Princeton, NJ Lines: 12 References: I heard (only secondhand, must be true!) about a performance where at one point all the radios were turned down soft, and then one radio happened to pick up a Beethoven symphony on WQXR (classical station, new york city). I'll bet there are many fun anecdotes about what has happened at performances of this piece. Not bad, for a work of art... - Toby Robison (not Robinson!) allegra!eosp1!robison decvax!ittvax!eosp1!robison princeton!eosp1!robison
