Experiencing Music and Visual Cultures : Threshold, Intermediality, Synchresis, Paperback / softback Book

Experiencing Music and Visual Cultures : Threshold, Intermediality, Synchresis Paperback / softback

Edited by Antonio (Maynooth University, Ireland) Cascelli, Denis (Maynooth University, Ireland) Condon

Part of the Music and Visual Culture series

Paperback / softback

Description

Bringing the research of musicologists, art historians, and film studies scholars into dialogue, this book explores the relationships between visual art forms and music.

The chapters are organized around three core concepts – threshold, intermediality, and synchresis – which offer ways of understanding and discusssing the interplay between the arts of sounds and images.

Refuting the idea that music and visual art forms only operate in parallel, the contributors instead consider how the arts of sound and vision are entwined across a wide array of materials, genres and time periods. Contributors delve into a rich variety of topics, ranging from the art of Renaissance Italy to the politics of opera in contemporary Los Angeles to the popular television series Breaking Bad.

Placing these chapters in conversation, this volume develops a shared language for cross-disciplinary inquiry into arts that blend music and visual components, integrates insights from film studies with the conversation between musicology and art history, and moves the study of music and visual culture forward.
