Discovering the Music of Paintings

How does a painting sound? How do line and shape, color and texture, mood and compositional relationships translate into music? Join Oliver Prezant and violinist Carla Kountoupes, clarinetist Jerry Weimer, and cellist Katie Harlow for an interactive, musical exploration of the artwork of Carlos Canul. Carlos’ extraordinary paintings suggest the liminal world between matter and spirit, where landscapes dissolve into ethereal states and the boundaries between objects soften into the awareness of something larger. During the program, you’ll have a chance to share your thoughts and ideas as we create original music based on your impressions of the painting. The artist will be present during the program.
