The Culture Show has been making direct connections between art inspired by music and music inspired by art. Now it’s time for more - unexpected connections...The Culture Show is continuing its look at how the visual arts and music are so connected - sometimes directly, sometimes indirectly. We have unearthed a wealth of examples, yet we have so much more to explore. I hope that for those of you who join me for the music – much of which has never been, or is very seldom played on Radio 4 – you will also develop my passion for art. Join me, Stacey Rodda, Sunday nights at 7 pm for The Culture Show.
Degas and Jazz
In this episode we look at Degas before his dancers. Did you know that the artist produced over 40 oil paintings and pastels depicting the race track and, that Duke Ellington composed a work inspired by them?
As the pastime of horse racing bounded onto the Parisian social scene, we will look at a few of Degas’s celebrated race track paintings that focus on the horses’ restless anticipation, energy and tension; the jockeys; and the surrounding Belle Époque society.
We’ll hear Ellington’s The Degas Suite and the story behind the music.
