There are generally three methods employed: (1) the use of random procedures to generate compositions; (2) the allowance of choice to the performer(s) from among options created by the composer; and (3) the use of nontraditional or totally new-made schemes or notation and notational symbols that loosen the composer's instructions and allow much room for the performer(s) own interpretation. The technique has been used widely since the mid-20th century, one of the notable practitioners being the American composer John Cage. aleatoria aleatòria 2026-03-30 20:22:04
