| “ | "Just as his poetry had done, Cage's work in the visual arts had its effect on his musical works. An early and direct example of this is Thirty Pieces for Five Orchestras. The compositional process here was derived from the method used in the On the Surface etchings. A piece of cardboard the size of one score page was cut up at random, producing a large number of unique templates, much like the copper plates of On the Surface. Holes were then punched at chance-determined locations in these templates. A different set of templates was made for each of the five independent orchestral groups. For each of the thirty pieces, the I Ching was used, as it was in the etchings, to determine which of these templates would be used and in what positions. The notes of the piece were then inscribed through the holes of the templates. No "horizon" line was used here - such a purely visual element would be inappropriate - but a similar effect was produced by distinguishing between those templates that lay wholly within the space of the page and those that extended outside it. The notes of these latter templates were added together to form a single chord, and this chord was then repeated in a randomly-derived ostinato pattern. The notes produced by the other templates were given randomly-chosen durations, pitch inflections, dynamics, vibrato, and so forth. The result of this is that within each piece, there are free curves and outbursts, distinctive and unique, set against the grid of the irregularly repeated sonorities." - James Pritchett, The Music of John Cage | ” |
