Book, 120 pages.

»Everything we do is music« contains more than 50 fun, hands-on and thought-provoking activities, each taking a work by John Cage as a starting point and exploring the links between music, dance, visual art, poetry and nature. Most projects require no prior knowledge of reading music or playing an instrument and can be worked through with little preparation – each activity encouraging creative thinking and experimentation, exploring the world around us and blurring the boundaries separating life and art.
