John Cage - In a Landscape (1948)

“In a Landscape” for solo piano or harp is a composition written by the American avant-garde composer John Cage, dedicated to the dancer Louise Lippold and set to her choreography. The piece floats and wanders like an ethereal dream, in an apparent reference to Erik Satie’s music. It is much more mellifluous than many of Cage’s other more experimental works. Throughout the entire composition, both the damper and sustain pedals are to be held until the very last measure.
