Post-Cagean music

Post-Cagean music refers to the era of music that evolved from the ideas of American composer John Cage, who challenged traditional notions of composition and sound. After Cage, musicians began exploring new ways to create music, often incorporating chance, silence, unconventional instruments, and multimedia elements. This movement emphasizes the experience of sound and the environment, blurring the lines between music and everyday noise. It encourages improvisation and participation, often leading to unique performances that reflect contemporary influences and ideas, redefining what music can be in the modern world.
