Art inspired by music. Music inspired by art.
We know that artists can take emotions and atmospheres evoked by sound and interpret them into something visual, as can composers recreate with sound, images from a canvas or other form of visual art. The possibilities are endless… The Culture Show continues to make connections between these two art forms.

As we continue to explore symbiotic relationships between examples of visual art and classical music, in this episode, examples of how Liszt firmly believed that different forms of art can complement and strengthen one another. His 13 symphonic poems were inspired by the visual or literary arts. We explore Battle of the Huns inspired by a fresco of Wilhelm von Kaulbach, and From the Cradle to the Grave inspired by a drawing by Mihály Zichy.
POULENC/ WATTEAU

Music inspired by visual art...
We couple Max Reger's 'In the Play of the Waves' from his Four Tone Poems Op. 128 to Arnold Bocklin's painting 'Playing in the Waves', and Debussy's 'Play of the Waves' from La Mer to Hokusai's 'The Great Wave' (Under the Wave off Kanagawa).
Compared to Debussy’s La Mer written a few years earlier, Reger pursued the flamboyant realm of mythical creatures, but both works have a similar sparkling orchestral character.
We actually take a look at the four Bocklin works that led Reger to compose his atmospheric pictures and take note of Hokusai's inspiration for the whole of Debussy's La Mer.
The connections continue...
