1909 -1920s · Guitars, violins, scores and visual rhythms
Music accompanied Cubism from its earliest years. Guitar, violin, mandolin and score belong to the life of cafes and workshops, but their construction above all offers an ideal vocabulary: curved case, rectilinear neck, rosette, strings and gills can be separated then recomposed. Braque and Picasso introduced letters, music paper and real fragments into collages from 1912. Juan Gris then developed a particularly clear syntax, where instrument, newspaper, bottle and table fit together with precision. Louis Marcoussis favors denser structures; Albert Gleizes associates musician figure, duration and movement. Cubism does not claim produce a sound. It transposes repetition, interval, variation and simultaneity into the visual organization. The "Cubist music and instruments" selection notably compares Violin, Marc bottles and cards and Musician (Florent Schmitt). His reading favors details.
The cubist instrument remains identifiable because a few signs - string, neck, hearing - are enough to make the whole thing mentally resonate.
