What happens when music is made of silence? In this
episode, Javier, Valentina, and Mayah dive into the
groundbreaking and controversial work of art John
Cage’s 4’33”. We explore how this piece challenges the
very definition of music, its impact on the art world, and
why it remains as thought provoking today as it was at its
debut. We discuss the public’s reaction to its premiere,
its ongoing influence in the worlds of music and
conceptual art, and how it continues to shape the way
artists and listeners think about sound today. Join us as we
break down the history, philosophy, and cultural
significance of this revolutionary piece.
