New York, (FEB 12th, 2006)--- On Saturday and Sunday, February 18 and 19, 2006, at 8:00 pm, the celebrated avant-garde pianist and renowned Cage interpreter, Margaret Leng Tan, will perform at the Anthology Film Archives (32 Second Avenue at Second Street). Ms. Tan will present the world premieres of Chess Pieces (1944) by John Cage, Chess Serenade (1944) by Vittorio Rieti and Pawn to King Four (2006) by Michael Nyman.

John Cage's and other artists' interest in chess is well documented. Cage contributed his "score-painting", Chess Pieces, to the surrealist The Imagery of Chess exhibition (1944) at the Julien Levy Gallery in New York. Purchased after the show, it disappeared into a private collection. Recently rediscovered, Cage�s Chess Pieces as well as Rieti's Chess Serenade from the same show, are currently on view at The Noguchi Museum�s The Imagery of Chess Revisited exhibition.

Nyman's toy piano arrangement of Pawn to King Four, the chess sequence from his opera The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat, is specially created for this Anthology Film Archives event.

In addition Ms. Tan will provide live accompaniment to two surrealist film classics: Anemic Cinema (1926, 7 minutes) by Marcel Duchamp and Entr�acte (1924, 21 minutes) by Ren� Clair.

Tickets for both nights are available at the door and are $12.00 general admission. For further information please call (212) 979-1027. The Anthology Film Archives are located at Second Avenue at Second Street.
