Creating in a VISUAL Mode

Music events need posters to help in getting the word out, and one of the music-related jobs I've enjoyed is getting to design posters for concerts and other music-related events. I thought I would let folks on here know that I have a little "portfolio" set up on my Flickr account, here. Check it out!

Here are a couple of my favorites on there right now...




Something I enjoy is taking an image of a classic work of art and using it to represent a music event. Does art ever affect how you feel about music?

Sails

I have not shared on here for a couple of weeks, so here is an interesting rendition of Debussy's Prelude, Voiles, transcribed for violin and piano and performed by Grigory Feygin:

Debussy's use of whole tone and pentatonic scales gives this piece a unique and evocative sense of space. Voiles is French for "sails." The original piano work is number two from Debussy's first book of Preludes, 1909–1910.
