ASLSP

Call it a reaction to the speed of modern life, call it a new experience of sound, call it a tourist attraction of the unusual sort – the small East German city of Halberstadt certainly ventured into new territory when it launched the performance of ASLSP by avant-garde composer John Cage in the year 2000, [...]
