When I started composing Landscapes my knowledge of JMW Turner was zilch. Nothing. Nada. Although I hail from a creative background, art and appreciating art was not a part of my background. In fact, until I moved to London in 2000, I had never even been to an art gallery.

Since 2000 my interest in conceptual and contemporary art grew but still I had not fully encountered the art of the JMW Turner, the great nineteenth century landscape painter.

I didn’t know what I was looking but I knew that I needed to discover something truly unique about Turner to enable an authentic musical response to his art.

I didn’t know where to start as I knew so little and so, as James Hamilton was curating Turner Contemporary’s Making Painting exhibit, I picked up a copy of his Turner: A Life biography to start my journey.

From 1798, the Royal Academy started to allow artists to append quotations to their artworks in the catalogue entries. to this avail, Turner not only appended the poetry of his favourite poets from Milton, Thomson and Pope to the ethereal poetry of Mark Akenside, but he also started writing his own poetry.

https://wasmorg.com/2024/03/07/e0wlducezrt One poet of great inspiration to Turner was 18th century English poet Mark Akenside, writer of Pleasures of the Imagination. In fact, in one of Turner’s Perspective lectures at the Royal Academy he is quoted to have paraphrased Akenside as follows:

My research into JMW Turner continues. It is rather addictive and I am enjoying finding out so much about this prolific man. What I have found so far which has contributed to the composition of Landscapes is that the influence of poetry, and music, was profound.
