Hieronymus Bosch Music



Have you (like me) always wondered what the music from Hieronymus Bosch's 'Garden of Earthly Delights' painting sounds like? The score (written on some poor chap's bottom) has now been deciphered, and here it is, played in 15th C fashion, for your delight.

Not the world's greatest music, but interesting enough to have the question solved..

Quite pleasant- a lot of music for a small bottom.

Cro Magnon said...

It won't make 'Top of the Pops'.

Cro Magnon said...

They made the most of it; there wasn't a lot to go on.

Andi's English Attic said...

Actually, it goes well with the painting.

Cro Magnon said...

Muddled and riotous?

the veg artist said...

I've never been keen on that painting - quite like the music though!

Cro Magnon said...

I've never thought whether I like it or not, it simply tells an horrific tale. Not a world I wish to inhabit.

New World said...

A rather pleasant piece of music to accompany a weird painting of hell. I have never really understood the painting but I like the music.

Cro Magnon said...

I don't think I ever tried to understand it. To me it was always a religious painting that tried to frighten people.

New World said...

I always thought of him as a man with a great sense of humour and I like his work. However I suppose it went much deeper than humour.

The Weaver of Grass said...

Didn't find the music inspiring but have always been fascinated by the painting.

Tom Stephenson said...

They should have used a sackbutt.

Tigger's Mum said...

Meditational (the music - the painting not so much).

Cro Magnon said...

I think it might have been better to keep us guessing!

Cro Magnon said...

Nice one!

Cro Magnon said...

Hmmmm; not too sure about that. Personally I'd rather contemplate the paining in silence.
