76-page softbound book.

The Edition Peters monograph on John Cage - the Frankfurt-based publisher that has been Cage's primary score publisher and thus the institution most responsible for the practical dissemination of his work to performers. An authoritative introduction to Cage's compositional methods, ideas, and aesthetics, produced by the publisher with the deepest access to the composer's working materials. Peters issued Cage's scores from the late 1950s onward, including the most complex graphic and indeterminate works, and their publications on Cage carry a particular primary-source weight.
