La Monte Young comes from the post-Cage/Cowell generation of American composers who became known as minimalists, working, starting in the 1950s and 1960s, at the boundaries of art music, jazz, and rock amplification. For Young and other composers of his generation, the incorporation of non-western musical, aesthetic, and philosophical systems became a crucial creative ingredient. For my own immersion in The Well-Tuned Piano In The Magenta Lights, I chose a rainy, humid day in late summer. The windows to my listening room were open, and the sounds of birdsong and falling rain were, by necessity, a background – at least initially – to the recorded performance; later, those sounds would disappear into that aforementioned all-encompassing harmonic and visual haze.
