Sound: The symphony of music and the heart, the poetry in the notes of the master
When the sunlight penetrates the curtains and falls on the quiet desk, the moment you open the "Picture Book of Classical Music Masters (Volume II)" in the afternoon, it is like opening a music box full of magic. The interweaving of books and melodies leads us into Chopin's blue notes, Satie's little piano and Ravel's Isle of Sleeplessness, where we can feel the emotional world and musical talent of classical music masters.
"Classical Music Masters Picture Book (2nd Edition)" is a musical feast that transcends time and space, and the creations of three great musicians have touched the world. Chopin's blue notes convey nostalgia for the past and anticipation for the future. Satie's little piano showcases his unique musical talent and love of life. Ravel's Island of Sleeplessness is his deep contemplation of life and time.
The poetic text and beautiful illustrations present the life and musical creation of the three masters of classical music, Chopin, Sati and Ravel. Every music master is a microcosm of an era, and their musical works are not only an expression of personal emotions, but also a profound reflection of social reality.
In "Chopin's Blue Note", we feel the loneliness and melancholy in the heart of this "piano poet". Through his musical notes, he tells the longing for his distant homeland, the nostalgia for his departed relatives, and his vision for a better future. His music is like blue notes in the night sky, melodious and profound, making people intoxicated by it.
"Sati's Little Piano" shows a completely different style of music. Satie is a whimsical composer whose music is often tinged with banter and absurdity. He likes to add all kinds of unexpected elements to his music, so that the listener will continue to surprise in the process of appreciation. His "little piano" is like a magical instrument that can play the most beautiful music and create the most bizarre sounds.
The final piece, "Ravel's Island That Never Sleeps," takes the reader into a world full of fantasy music. Ravel was an impressionist composer, and his musical compositions often had a hazy and mysterious aesthetic. On the "Island of Sleeplessness", time seems to lose its meaning, and everything becomes static and illusory. Through his music, Ravel makes us feel the passage of time and the fragility of life, and also makes us full of curiosity and yearning for the unknown world.
Although the lives and musical works of these three music masters are different, they all show their infinite love for music and deep thinking about life.
