The Well-Tuned Piano
''The Well-Tuned Piano'' is a long, improvisatory, solo piano work by La Monte Young. Young has never considered the composition "finished," and dates the piece as 1964–73–81–present. A typical performance lasts five to six hours.
==Biography==
La Monte Young was born October 14, 1935, in Bern, Idaho. Growing up, he often listened to the sounds of nature spilling into his log-cabin home. Young cites these sounds as inspirations in later life, and his compositions often involved drones and atypical tuning. With saxophone as his primary instrument, Young attended Los Angeles City College and UCLA, where he studied composition with Leonard Stein, a student of Arnold Schoenberg, and counterpoint with Robert Stevenson, a student of Igor Stravinsky.〔 Five compact discs.〕 Young is often described as one of the founding fathers of minimalism, along with Terry Riley, Steve Reich, and Philip Glass,〔Potter (2000), p.1-2.〕 as well as an advocate for Indian classical music. In 1962, Young married visual artist Marian Zazeela. The two have often collaborated on projects that combine visual art and music, including ''The Well-Tuned Piano''. As an audience member at a live performance of The ''Well-Tuned Piano'', one is surrounded by the, "pure and intense color sensations," of ''The Magenta Lights''. These lights are magenta in color and are installed into the performance area and projected throughout the space.
