John Cage Concert Marks 10 Years Of Playing

Ten years down and 629 to go in what’s billed as the world’s longest concert. A 639-year performance of John Cage’s “As Slow as Possible” started in September 2001 at a church in the German town of Halberstadt. The first year was silence. So far, there have been 11 chord changes. The next one isn’t scheduled until July. The current note sounds a bit like a dial tone. You can follow the music at www.john-cage.halberstadt.de.
