Index to Cage Literature.

I made this index basically for myself, in order to find information on Cage's works, without having to search every seperate index. Some of the books don't have an index, so I had to make one.
This index only mentions the works made by Cage, comprising musical compositions, texts, lectures, films etc.

---

The works are ordered alphabetically, omitting articles and cardinal numbers (though not ordinal numbers):

• For The City Wears a Slouch Hat: search under C.
• For Two Pieces for Piano: search under P.
• For Third Construction: search under T.
• For Two⁴: search under T
