“We connect Satie with Thoreau”—evoking freedom, non-violent resistance, and connections to our environment—is the motto that experimental composer John Cage used to create Song Books, a collection of 90 solos for voice, voice with electronics, and theatrical action with and without electronics. Selected songs are combined with film excerpts associated with Cage and his music for an unforgettable Full Tilt/Cinematics evening.
