audio & visual

This building always catches my eye and makes me smile. The beautiful black notes, linear dynamics and rest marks, and curvy treble and bass clefs show that music, which we think of as primarily an aural form of art, is visually stunning as well. The stark contrast between black and white, the graceful phrase marks and the flurry of notes must beckon all passersby who read music to ask themselves "hmmm...I wonder what piece of music that is." And those who don't read music must look at this brick wall - that's been lovingly painted in song - and know that where there is music there is love.
