  Lesson Plans  Escher, Art and Music (MC Escher + Rudolf
Escher)  [ Thread ][ Subject ][ Author ][ Date ] Thu, 30 Oct
1997 20:40:19 +0000  Can anyone throw any light on the musical
interests of MC Escher?  (If you are on a musical discussion
group, I'd be grateful if you would copy this message there.)
There are a few tantalising references in books on Escher about
his interests in musical notation. Also, Doris Schattschneider
has reminded me that the composer Rudolf Escher (1912-1980) was
(?) a cousin of MCE's - does anyone know anything about HIM?
Finally, a 1953 flute solo written by Rudolf Escher is called
"Air pour charmer un lezard" - thus (?) reflecting the other
Escher's infatuation with such reptiles.  Any information on any
of the above gratefully received.
