John Cage = most boring composer ever. Not to mention attention-getting "idiot" with "output" like this. Gimme a break. Are thousands beating down the door to hear these chords being played one year at a time? (rolling my eyes....) Never met the guy but I bet he's as arrogant as they come.

Are they paying the musicians by the hour? And what happens in 2639 if the audience calls for an encore?

Seriously, this is the most self-indulgent thing I ever heard of! I agree with my aunt. After she died, I found a hand-written note in her Book of Common Prayer, "No music written after 1900!"
