Maybe if they were visiting just for the music, but perhaps the organ itself is of some interest?

Sure, if you want to make it about the engineering accomplishment rather than the music itself. Somewhat to your point, I guess I have more respect for Rainer Neugebauer and the team actually attempting to put this performance on than for John Cage simply writing it down vaguely.

  • Totally agree. I think Cage's work is vaguely interesting in an abstract sorta way, but the actually interesting part of this piece is the organ itself. I think they're both art, but I personally value the latter more.
