getting back to listening
Another aspect of music which is similar to painting is the use of the theme. Just as a good painting has elements of recognition and repetition to reassure the viewer, a musical piece will have repetitive elements which keep bringing the listener back to hearing. The painting has visual motifs which bring the viewer back to looking.
