John Cage was a 20th-century American composer. He pioneered the idea of music that allowed the performer a large amount of freedom. His idea was that all sounds are music. He wrote pieces for "prepared" piano, in which various objects were placed in the instrument, laying on or around the actual piano strings. He had a piece in which the pianist sits down and closes the lid over the keys for a designated length of time. He was very controversial; some people felt he was not a composer at all but a mere arranger of random sounds. He was very interesting, and his ideas bear further investigation.
