“ It was Cage’s “4’33″ that made listeners for the first time truly hear the world around a performance. In the song, a lone piano player sat silently in front of a piano, proceeding only to close the cover and sit motionless for a full four minutes and 33 seconds. This revolutionary act of music led people to finally become aware of the world of sound around them. The breathing of the person next to them. The blood rushing through their bodies or the pounding in their head. The hum of the air conditioning or the electric lights. A siren fading in the distance.
