These composers have common approaches. Cage is known for prepared piano and aleatoric music, he is more piano and vocal, often beautiful. Kagel is more theatrical/absurdist/collage/distortion. Often you will need to know a particular piece for correct answer. (Cage, Kagel)
Both contemporary composers created very unusual performances and it is interesting to read how each piece was made. Kagel is more theatrical/absurdist/collage/distortion and Lucier is physics and recording technique experimenter. (Lucier, Kagel)
