In this ambitious lecture, Bill Buchman, will use his practical experience in both art and music to explain and demonstrate with musical instruments and paint the real parallels that exist between art and music and the various ways which artistic and musical concepts overlap, interweave and mirror each other. In addition to playing various instruments and using various drawing and painting techniques and media to demystify this subject, Bill will show key artworks that illustrate these relationships.
