Kids play Cage with a little help from Southland Ensemble Thursday is not, like Sept. 5 last year, a big day for John Cage. That day had been the 100th anniversary of the composer’s birth in Los Angeles, and the world celebrated. But if no one thought of the obvious Cagean celebration this year of performing the composer’s orchestra piece “101,” at least 30 middle and high school kids in Eagle Rock have the right idea.
