The New Music Collective continues its celebration of the 2012 John Cage Centennial with a concert presented by the historic Charleston Library Society of selections from Cage’s 44 Harmonies from Apartment House 1776 (1976) as arranged by Jason Brogan, Sam Sfirri, and Ron Wiltrout for the NMC Chamber Ensemble. Based on early American music, the pieces are “for the most part both quartets and solos, subtractions of different sorts from anthems and congregational music written by composers who were at least twenty years old at the time of the American Revolution” (Cage).
