FAQ About The Influence of Impressionist Music on Modern Soundtracks
What is Impressionist music?
Impressionist music is a style that emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, characterized by its emphasis on mood, atmosphere, and timbral colors rather than the traditional structures and forms of earlier music. It often uses extended harmonies, ambiguous tonalities, and unique scales like the whole tone scale. The movement is closely associated with composers such as Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel.
