What is Origin of Musical Dice Games about?

This document summarizes 18th century dice music games that allowed non-musicians to compose music randomly. It describes several influential early dice music games published between 1757-1812, including works by Kirnberger, an anonymous author, Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, and an English game. These games segmented pre-composed music into individual notes or bars that could be reassembled in random order to generate new musical compositions, representing an early form of aleatory music composition.
