Music in Art

Lecturer: Sophie Matthews.

So many of our historical references for musical instruments can be found in works of art. Not only can these windows into the past show us what the instruments looked like but also the social context in which they would have been played. Sophie explores the instruments in selected works and then gives live demonstrations on replicas of the instruments depicted.
