John Cage experts: What's the name of this piece?

I have been casually searching for this piece of music by John Cage I once heard on an Athens college radio station back in 1995 to no avail. I cannot remember the title, but I do remember the DJ stating that the piece was made with an instrument called ‘Trance Gongs.’ It basically sounded like very deep sounding wind chimes. It was very ambient sounding.

So, are there any experts on John Cage out there that might know what the title of this piece might be and where I can find a recording of it?

Beautiful piece you recommended, Satchmo, but that wasn't it. "In A Landscape" was all piano. The piece I'm looking for really sounded like deep-toned bells.
