And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his garments became white as light.

And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah talking with him. And Peter said to Jesus, ‘Lord, it is good for us to be here.”

He was still speaking, when lo, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am pleased; listen to him.”

[Matthew 17:2-5]

And He Was Transfigured (2023) - SSA voices & viola | by Buck McDaniel

Voice of John Cage (1912-1992) 
Excerpt from an interview in 'Listen’ (Écoute), a film by Miroslav Sebestik, 1992

When I hear what we call music
It seems to me that someone is talking
And talking about his feelings or about his ideas of relationships

But when I hear traffic, the sound of traffic, here on 6th Avenue for instance,
I don’t have the feeling that anybody is talking
I have the feeling that sound is acting

Sound is acting 
And I love the activity of sound

What it does is
It gets louder and quieter
And it gets higher and lower
And it gets longer and shorter
It does all these things
Which I’m completely satisfied with
And I don’t need sound to talk to me

It gets louder and quieter
And it gets higher and lower
And it gets longer and shorter
And I don’t need sound to talk to me

Sound is acting 
And I love the activity of sound

Sound is acting 
And I love the activity of sound

We don’t see much difference between time and space
We don’t know where one begins and the other stops

There are two things that don’t have to mean anything
One is music and the other is laughter

Don’t have to mean anything, that is
In order to give a us very deep pleasure

You know that 
Don’t we?
