I think, if I may, that the Cage concert is an anomaly. Furthermore, there were people who were engaged. The vast
majority had never encountered this sort of event. The underpinning of our idea is sound...and if you come to others
you would see that. Furthermore, the current audience is a traditional one, in which most never exhibit excitement. Yes,
no one wants to see plank faces out there, and neither do I and we won't. We have years of ASO and Bard Festival
concerts to prove that the premise works. And even in the Cage, there were more than one persons who were reached.
We never have been in a mass entertainment enterprise, but I know this will work with the audience. If I had the
slightest doubt, I would not have invited you to the Cage event, which I knew would either be empty or populated by an
unpredictable array and a real stretch for a Carnegie audience.
When would you like to talk. I would like the chance to defend the enterprise's premises.

i have been wrestling now with the conceptual underpinning of you project. I found the cage concert disquieting. the
Audience , at least the vast majority were neither interested, interesting or engaged, they were just warm. (body temp ).
If music is to bypass the intellect, it shouldn't have been a problem for your audience as that hurdle did seemed not to
exist. . IF your idea does not have traction, then what. are you saying that there should be works that are exhiited,
though the audience does not yet know it. what encouragement doest it give to new world symphony players . to look
out and see blanck old theatre masks. if there is one person whose life is changed , is it worth the effort and the
philanthropy. I remain troubled

Dear Jeffrey,
Happy holidays on the Island (wherever it is). I just got an email from Henry (about some project he is involved with).
Take care and I look forward to our next conversation.

i will be on the island until jan 17 , you are welcome to come for a few days, one day, any day, I spent time looking at
works by Cage , therefore I might argue that it says carnegie music hall , not carnegie sounds hall. we need a longer
discussion re benefits vs cost.

I hope you enjoyed yourself. I warned you it was out there.
In January we are doing a concert at Carnegie designed to question why certain pieces become famous. I am doing three
symphonies in minor keys all written or revised in the 18805 by three composers who knew one another. One work
became famous (Brahms 4), one is on the sidelines (Dvorak 4) and one is totally obscure (Herzogenberg 1). The audience
then gets the rare chance to think about their own reactions in relation to conventional judgment.
Are you in Cambridge and will you see Henry. If so please give him my best. When do we see each other?

Thanks for going to the concert.
