"In an age when everyone can easily experience music, earphones and speakers are fine, but why not also try enjoying the sounds we can hear from paper? From easily accessible stories and picture books to thick art texts, we've collected 700 books to help readers understand music from various perspectives. These books are introduced according to 11 themes such as "Music and Performers," "Music and Life" and "Music and Language." We've also devised elaborate methods for sharing books and created installations featuring aphorisms (memorable phrases from books) transformed into videos."
