1900-1945 Time of Artistic and Musical diversity - new styles and genres appeared faster - influenced by cultural climate and wars - We get to a definitive break from tonality - Classical music becomes very controversial Decline of The Symphony and Opera - rise in free forms for orchestra, ballet, chamber music, and piano music

Impressionism Sunrise, Claude Monet 1872

Impressionism In painting- visible brush strokes, inclusion of movement In music-focused on suggestion and atmosphere rather than strong emotion or the depiction of a story (as in program music). Favor short forms (no symphonies!) Based in France Use of whole tone scale Artistic Impressionism: Monet ::Musical Impressionism: Debussy Painting-include visible brush strokes, open composition, emphasis on light in its changing qualities (often accentuating the effects of the passage of time), ordinary subject matter, the inclusion of movement as a crucial element of human perception and experience, and unusual visual angles.
