The concert dedicated to Cage's music, performed in his presence and introduced by a brief conversation in public, was organized in the summer of 1992 (21 june) in Florence and obtained an exceptional success. It was really and truly an event because Cage had come to Florence on one previous occasion alone, about midway through the Fifties, on the occasion of a concert in the hall of Leonardo da Vinci Society which the young Luciano Berio took part in, and because the performers was the best ones for Cage's sounds.
A few weeks later (on 14 August), Cage died.
