看莫奈畫的時候想起了耶魯聆聽音樂課的一段

 

記得Professor Wright 在課上說，當經濟困難的時候，畫廊通常喜歡展出印象派的作品。

 

Musical Impressionism and Exoticism: Debussy, Ravel and Monet

 

In this lecture, Professor Wright teaches the students about musical Impressionism. While his discussion focuses on the music of Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel, he nonetheless draws examples from other composers, as well as painters and poets who worked with a similar aesthetic style during the same time period. The class concludes with a performance of Ravel's "Ondine" by guest pianist Naomi Woo.
