New: BEAUTIFUL NOISE: THE MUSIC OF JOHN CAGE
A STAR THREE TIMES OVER!!
STARRED REVIEW!
"...a good introduction to Cage and a reminder that hearing things differently can be a very good thing."
— Booklist
STARRED REVIEW!
“stunning…Readers will likely be curious to experiment themselves and “be like John Cage”
— The Horn Book Magazine
STARRED REVIEW!
Framing the story with a recurring “What if...” (“What if you composed a piece of piano music/ without any notes”), onomatopoeic lines create a sense of Cage’s unconventional music...and underscore his determination to explore sound despite criticism. "
— Publishers Weekly
"A great introduction to a composer who was a disruptor and pioneer; this is a solid addition to school libraries and music departments."
— School Library Journal
"Tantalizing glimpses of a composer
who challenged the very definition of music."
— Kirkus Reviews
Told in second person and paired with exciting illustrations as innovative as Cage’s music, here is a picture book–perfect for any budding musician–that celebrates the genius of a nonconforming musician who always stayed true to his artistic vision.
