On August 29, 1952 master pianist David Tudor took the stage in a barnlike concert hall called the Maverick and performed John Cage’s 4’33”, a controversial yet enduring piece, whose purpose is to amplify the ambient sounds of whatever venue it inhabits. This fascinating account of a music composition with no notes and the genius who created it is brilliantly presented for young listeners to “hear how much sound there is in silence.”
