Songs and the Sky
Confident in the expressive capability of his #Equivalents series, Alfred Stieglitz wrote of his hope that the celebrated composer Ernest Bloch would declare, “Music, music! Man that is Music!” upon viewing his images of the sky. In 1922, Stieglitz shared this series with Bloch and according to Stieglitz, the desired reaction was evoked from the composer and his efforts were understood. In that same year, Bloch composed Poems of the Sea, potentially in response to Stieglitz’s work, and with a similar creative end. #songsandthesky
