I didn't see Sculptures Musicales on your list, Josh--has that really been recorded?  Still available?

Subject: [silence] unrecorded Cage?


Are there any (finished) Cage pieces left to be recorded? I have been
looking at André Chaudron's wonderful lists. I spot these pieces not
listed in the discography:

Greek Ode
First Chapter of Ecclesiastes
Opening Dance for Sue [Laub]
Dance to the West
Encounter (3 of 4 movements finished)
Orestes
Black Mountain Piece (could this be recorded? or should we consider it
to be a 1-time event of 1952?)
Unfinished Work for Voice
Unfinished Work for Magnetic Tape (could these two be finished?)
Speech (there is a YouTube clip of rehearsals of this piece)
Adaptation of 'Ixion' (Feldman piece)
Duet for Cymbal (version of Cartridge Music mentioned in score)
WBAI
Variations V
Variations VI
Variations VII
Newport Mix
0'00" No. 2 (Solo for Voice No. 23 - I don't know if this has been
recorded as part of Song Books)
Sound Anonymously Received
33 1/3 / Cassette / Address
Dialogue
Untitled (work for Joao Miró) (score may not be available)
Les chants de Maldoror pulvérises par l'assistance même
Music for "Westbeth" (recored on video, score may not be available)
Quartets I-VIII (there are versions for 24, 41, 93 players, only 1 or 2
have been recorded, 24 players, and I don't know how big the ensemble
is on the Hat Hut recording)
Sounday
Concerto Grosso
Paragraphs of Fresh Air
Improvisation III
Fifteen domestic minutes
A House Full of Music
Improvisation IV
Instances of Silence
HMCIEX (recorded but not yet released)
A Collection of Rocks
Selkus2
Improvisation A+B
Rocks
Wishing Well
Scottish Circus
Mozart Mix
Eighty
Muoyce II

Well, I guess I answered my own question. I have left out the pieces
composed in collaboration (presumably for Merce Cunningham dance
performances).
