American avant-garde composer, music theorist and philosopher
John Cage was born in Los Angeles. He became famous for his experimental composition “4'33” from
1952, in which the musicians do not play their instruments and the surrounding sounds become part of the work.
John Cage died in New York from complications following a stroke at the age of 79.
