Digital adaptation of the "prepared piano" ways of playing as first imagined by Henry Cowell and developped by John Cage in "Sonatas & interludes for prepared piano" (which aesthetic result is very close to his compositions for percussion quartet and Balinese gamelans) using two TENORI-ON(s) and various filters.

N.B.- These rehearsals are part of a series of solo pieces inspired by John Cage's experiments for prepared piano and Colon Nancarrow works for mechanical piano.
