Paul Klee was an accomplished violinist and a member of the highly regarded Bern Orchestra, and for a long time he was unsure whether to make his career in art or music.
This book describes and illustrates how, from his earliest work as both painter and musician, Klee focused his efforts on combining these two related art forms. He attempted to translate the fundamental structures and rhythms of musical composition into painting. He developed and harmonized pictorial themes as a composer would write music, weaving a complex series of signs and symbols into his painting.
