Preface

Few artists of his eminence or his conversational brilliance were as generous with interviews as John Cage, who honored requests from undergraduate newspapers with attention and grace equal to those from slick magazines; and these interviews have appeared all over the world. Since they were individually incomplete, while most had elements lacking in others, it seemed appropriate to select exemplary passages, and from these selections to compose a sort of extended ur-interview that Cage ideally might have given. I decided to gather his choicest comments under several rubrics, and then order those comments as though they were parts of a continuous conversation similar to, say, Pierre Cabannes Entretiens avec Marcel Duchamp (1967). While these rubrics may violate the style and content of Cages thinking, they nonetheless serve the convenient function of organizing what he did not organize himself. Indeed, such structuring is perhaps a principal difference between talk and print. Though remarks as such may not be literature, conversation as provocative and elegant as Cages, so full of important ideas, often attains the quality we call classic. Admittedly, someone else could have chosen different nuggets from the same verbal mine, assembling them in wholly different ways. (And if they did, that result would be a book Id like to read.) Even though I have been identified as this books editor (sometimes by academics who should have known better), I consider myself its Composer, for Cagean reasons expressed in the third epigraph to this book, and thus its Author.

Since we were making a new book, it was decided not to draw from interviews in previous books wholly devoted to Cages work: his own books, which are now over a dozen; my own documentary monograph, John Cage (New York: Praeger, 1970; London: Allen Lane, 1971; New York: Da Capo, 1991), which also appeared in German (Kln: Dumont, 1973) and Spanish (Barcelona: Anagrama, 1974); Daniel Charles
