Pianist Bridget Convey presents a one-of-a-kind concert experience featuring John Cage’s Sonatas and Interludes—a set of short pieces for a specially prepared piano.

To create the unique sounds in this music, everyday objects like screws, rubber, and bolts are placed between the piano strings. The result? A mix of soft, mysterious, and percussive tones that turn the piano into something completely new. Written in the 1940s, this music is calm, curious, and full of surprises.

Interested in a deeper dive into Cage’s music? Join Convey from 4–5 P.M. before the performance for an exclusive, free masterclass.

Run Time: Approximately 75 minutes, with no intermission.

ADULT, SENIOR 65+, CHILD/STUDENT, & USM FACULTY/ULUMNI prices are available for this event online.
Ticket prices include a per ticket service fee, varying from $2.00-$4.00 depending on ticket price.
