[Dixielandjazz] John Cage

Hi all,

Steve Heist writes (regarding the "organ/ASLSP" project):

Important questions indeed.

I'd like a little more information on the composition itself . . .  can 
somebody send me a lead sheet?

Just the melody and chord line is fine unless there are lyrics, in which 
case I'd like those too.

By the way, I just replayed my recording of 4'33" by John Cage and my feet 
are still tapping!  What a musician!

Respectfully submitted,
