I saw a Cage performance back around 1973 in Ann Arbor. Damned if I can recall any of it.

Is it already over? Or are you writing this as a brief (half-century-long) intermission comes to an end?

Regards,

You misunderstand. . . It’s not an intermission, it’s a rest; a period of instrumental silence in the performance. It’s written in the score as: 47 yrs, 4’ 33” and then a new chord in a diminished 7th. Very dramatic.
