Every time when I examine an ancient painting with people playing musical instruments, I wish it could have the magic of Harry Porter’s pictures and paintings where characters jump out to talk to him.
At a time when recording machines were yet to be invented, melodious tunes were temporal and could not be heard beyond a certain physical space. Fortunately, people can turn to another art form to find the verve of music: paintings with live musical performances as the prime theme.
