About the Item

George Avakian Group Image of Merce Cunningham, John Cage, M.C. Richards, Jasper Johns, and Robert Rauschenberg 1958 Silver Gelatin Print 10 1/2 x 10 1/2 inches Provenance Estate of Carolyn Brown, New York 2025. George Avakian (1919-2017) was a pioneering record producer and industry leader who profoundly influenced the development of jazz and popular music. He is particularly recognized for pioneering the long-playing (LP) record format, elevating jazz figures such as Miles Davis and Dave Brubeck, and for his creative approaches to live recordings and album production methods. Avakian played an essential role in advancing the music of John Cage. He personally funded and oversaw the production of the first three albums featuring John Cage alongside Alan Hovhaness. In 1958, he arranged and recorded "The 25-Year Retrospective Concert of the Music of John Cage" at Town Hall, a project he also released independently.
