      1. Just play some easy octaves. (NOT EASY)
      2. Make the melody so fast, it seems like the player is gliss-ing. (NOT SACRELIGIOUS BOI REFENCE)
      3. Add whatever you want, chords, trills, left hand pizzicato. (BUT NEEDS TO BE AT LEAST 7 BARS OF THEM)

      The reason 4' 33" is famous is because it broke several structures and showed what Cage whole work in that rime period was: a study on silences that is still studied today.
      If all the other hard working musician had a 10% of the creativity that Cage had, starting with the indeterminacy, electroacustic and the use of non-stabdard musical instruments they would have been recognized too. They wouldn't even need to be part of the development of new dance styles like Cage was.
