    John Cage & Merce Cunningham

    "It's very simple now, because I'm looking forward to seeing you again rather than backward to having seen you recently. That's a happy way to be" __ Cage

    John Cage first met Merce Cunningham in 1938 when he was still married to Xenia Kashevaroff. Their paths crossed again in 1942 + Cage invited Cunningham, who was a member of the Martha Graham Dance Company, to work on a project. Their collaboration turned into a life-long creative + romantic partnership. Cunningham founded his own dance company in 1953 with Cage serving as the company’s music director, a position he held until his death. They staged over 50 dance works together.
