Music and Labyrinths


Musical labyrinths lead the listener into new keys 
by way of numerous modulations, misleading 
them with enharmonic chords. The title of 
Johann Sebastien Bach’s Kleines Harmonisches 
Labyrinth composed in 1705, alludes to the 
sustained state of disorientation that is 
induced on it’s listeners.
