CAGE² is the title of Bertrand Chamayou's new album, he calls it the twin brother of his most recent Letter(s) to Erik Satie, both recorded at the Miraval studios.
CAGE² is also the title of a performance Bertrand Chamayou conceived with dancer and choreographer Élodie Sicard, featuring 12 pieces composed by John Cage for prepared piano, in the period between 1940 and 1945.
The tracklist of CAGE² respects the order of the pieces as during the CAGE² performances.
John Cage wrote all the pieces of this album for dance solos: for the American dancer Syvilla Fort, for dancers and choreographers such as Valérie Bettis, Wilson Williams, Pearl Primus, Jean Erdman, but also for the terrific Merce Cunningham.
This is a fascinating project from Bertrand, who also delivered brilliant booklet notes on Cage, on the genesis of the prepared piano and the pieces...
