Abstract

John Cage's 'Letters to Erik Satie' were composed in Milan, dated May 6 and May 7, 1978, and C.F Peters Corporation has published this, which makes them widely available for study and performance. The completeness and simultaneity within the mesostic microcosm reflect Zen concepts of unimpededness and interpenetration, core principles in Cage's aesthetic philosophy.
