2. IMPRESSIONISM IN MUSIC AND PAINT 1890-1910
A. Context
Impressionism was a movement in the late 19th and early 20th Centuries in both art and music, which focused on mood and atmosphere.
Orchestral works by the French composers Maurice Ravel and Claude Debussy used timbre (more on timbre in music here), ambiguous tonality, and unusual scales to suggest color.
It was also intended to be charming and sensuous, in contrast to the heavy, deeply serious music made in the late Romantic period by German composers like Richard Wagner.
Debussy’s composition “La Mer” depicts the sea, although he actually rejected the impressionist label.
Impressionist painters like Claude Monet focused on portraying light and movement rather than realistically recreating the minute details of objects.
