Some musicians experience Synesthesia in which particular notes, keys or chords are experienced directly in relation to particular colours. We talk about the Blues or about white noise, both terms that raise a reference to colour. The video expands on the above then goes on to explore colour in relation to chords, different textures, and to the varying colours available between one instrument or voice and another, and within the ranges of particular instruments or voices. The impact of dynamics, articulation, particular playing techniques, sound waves and instrument design all play their part in contributing to the colour and consequent emotional impact of a score. This music appreciation lesson explores the topic from the perspectives of the listener, the performer and the composer.\n
