On the 18th anniversary of the great composer's death, the stage director/conceptualist Robert Wilson pays tribute to John Cage with a performance of Cage's Lecture on Nothing, which did for words what 4'33" did for sounds.  MAJOR.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  Only a Martini has the unalloyed greatness and purity worthy of an event like this:  pour 2 oz. Gin and 1 oz. dry Vermouth into an ice-filled cocktail shaker.  Stir.  Strain into a chilled Martini glass or coupe.  Garnish with a lemon twist.
