About
The 64-minute piece uses fragments of Cage's works as sound material, randomly re-arranged and combined. Simultaneously with Chess Show, Reinhold Friedl performs Cage's Song Books. The strict structure will be confronted with an unpredictable selection of other works: various piano parts from Number Pieces, jumbled takes on selection from Song Books, maybe even Suite for Toy Piano and Satie's Vexations.
The other version of Chess Show was created in the studio – Chess Show [4'34" version], in cooperation with Miroslav Beinhauer, a Czech piano virtuoso, as a guest.
