How effective is the impressionistic music to listeners?
Musical impressionism is closely related to the superior value of impressionist painting: placing the colour factor to the foreground strongly influenced shaping new sound effects, by such effects like long, atypical accords, fast move of sounds in piano dynamic, exposing interesting timbre of an instrument or specific articulation. On the scope of the form of pieces of music Impressionist composers enriched the way of creating musical works. In the majority of cases the form was a one-time idea for putting in the kind of order 'the fantasy of sound'. Glimmering sound has become the main feature of Impressionist music. It is conventionally called 'a timbre spot'. This phenomenon is connected with harmonic experiments and with the new meaning of piece's melodics. Precedence of timbre creates the melody from the mixture of accords' timbre and figurations rather than from the clear outline of the theme. It comes that sometimes the melody disappears and only few bizarre accords reads.
