Music Can Evoke Art



Listening to music can evoke or create strong feelings. We can express those feelings when we create art. Vassily Kandinsky was a Russian artist. He was an abstract artist. Music was the inspiration for many of his works.







 Listen to the pianist, Yiruma, play, River Flow in You. Close your eyes and listen. How does this music make you feel? What could you draw or paint in response to this music? 

 The second musician is, Sungha Jung. He is playing the same song, but with a guitar. After listening do you respond or feel a different way? 


 What kinds of materials would you use to express your feelings...chalk, paint, pencils, markers? Would you build something or weave with yarns...what colors do you feel your artwork should be after listening to this music?  

Can you think of another piece of music that can inspire you to make art?
