This is not your typical music site. Music functions in an unique and interesting way - it can be the catalyst that enables one to draw connections between all forms of study - connecting history to art, science and math to music theory, art to literature through poetry, form and lyric. Music Mutations is a blog that explores these ideas.

links, videos, articles, poetry, pictures, comics, and other media that
at draws connections between the universal language of music and other
art forms. Music Mutations will look at Post Modern reflections of how

literature and philosophy and intertwined as artistic mediums.
Music
Mutations
invites you, the reader, to send in your own examples of mutated
musical examples. To start us off, below is an excellent article from
the July 2010 Mosaic Art NOW that describes how musical rhythms can be
found in mosaic art. Knowing what classical works will be performed this
weekend by our mid-state youth, I can readily identify specific art
work with specific musical works.
FIRST - LISTEN TO Marquez' Danzon No. 2? THEN to "MOSAICS" by Eric Ewazen. THEN Read
the article tweeted by Nancy Van Reece from the Nashville Symphony. See
if you can figure out which work of art, I would connect to the video.
What work, have you played would you connect to a mosaic work of art?
