1812 Gentleman's Mag. Feb. 131 Had poor Mungo Park..heard but the simplest British air, it might have enraptured his heart more than all the flimsy eye-music of a modern sonata.

1903 Daily Mail 4 June 4/5 Occasionally it becomes eye-music, not ear-music; it looks, and is, extremely wonderful on paper,..but not so impressive as it ought to be when you come to hear it.

1999 J. Jackson Cure for Gravity 126 Most of my fellow composition students seemed to be producing what someone once aptly called ‘eye music’. That is, music that is more intelligible, and much prettier, on paper than it is to the ear.

2. Originally poetic. Something that is pleasing to the eye in a manner likened to listening to music, esp. in being visually rhythmic, varied in colour or tone, etc.

1842 W. Wordsworth in Athenæum 27 Aug. 759/1 The light ash! that..in seeming silence makes A soft eye-music of slow-waving boughs.

1895 Decorator & Furnisher 26 60/2 Manufacturers are now producing a large variety of exquisite shades, which affect the eye as music affects the ear. In fact, these colors are eye music.

1927 Pop. Sci. Monthly Oct. 30/3 Eye music is played on the fluted folds of the gray stage curtain. The tones..blend and dissolve harmoniously one into another.

1983 N.Y. Times 13 May c22/4 The slow, majestic and perfectly ordered eye music of [artist] Donald Judd has been absent for too long from the galleries.

2000 London Mag. Aug. 82 He was a pure painter uninterested in hidden narratives or factual description. Not for nothing did Hitchens call his painting ‘eye-music’.

3. Music. Musical notation which employs visual symbols or other graphical features (usually drawing the attention of the reader or performer to elements of the musical or lyrical content) that do not affect the sound of the music when performed.Frequently with reference to late medieval and Renaissance music.

1979 M. R. Maniates Mannerism in Ital. Music & Culture 332 The punning tricks of eye music count among the most notorious madrigalisms... Most common, of course, is the use of black notes to ‘color’ pertinent words.

2012 J. Magee Irving Berlin's Amer. Musical Theatre iv. 126 The refrain opens, too, with a clear case of ‘eye music’—in the score, the melody's whole notes look like pearls.
