Programme note
100 Voicings was composed for the John Cage centenary concert I gave in the Fismer Hall, Stellenbosch on 4 September 2012 (the lone Cage centenary event in Africa). It consists of 100 revoicings of the four-note chord derived from the pitches of Cage’s surname, though an inadvertent repetition resulted in 101.
