Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The abstract expressionist painters were known for emphasizing spontaneous and unconscious gestures in their work. Similarly, the composers of aleatoric music (also known as "chance" or "indeterminate" music) sought to introduce elements of chance or randomness into their compositions, allowing for a greater degree of improvisation and unpredictability. This shared interest in spontaneity and improvisation links the two movements together. Concrete music, 12-tone music, and program music do not share the same emphasis on spontaneity and improvisation.
