Synesthesia is the sensation of another sensory function in the body when another unrelated sensory function is being experienced (seeing music when looking at colors, smells that evoke sounds, etc.). Scriabin so linked color to his music that he created a “light organ” to display colors that corresponded to different notes in his pieces. In this hour, we find out how color and visual art affect composers and their music.
