These piano works by Cowell and Cage cover the period from 1912-1948 and document not only the emergence of experimental American music, but also their teacher-student relationship. Before John Cage began his brief and informal studies with Arnold Schoenberg, he studied composition with Cowell. Amiable Conversation allows us to compare Cowell's piano pieces with Cage's to reveal common features that are as clear as the differences.
