1.30pm Love, Longing, Loss and opera

For many years artists and musicians have been inspired by each other’s work. Significant periods in music history are named after equivalent movements in the visual arts, such as the Baroque, or Impressionism. Auckland Art Gallery Assistant curator Emma Jameson talks about the convergence of visual art and music.
