Evening Concert, Sainte-Chapelle- poem response 6

This poem was one of my least favorite ones. The thing that stood out to me was that the author was really trying to portray a certain feel, describe a certain thing, which led to be being very overwhelmed with following the scene or trying to visualize what was happening. One of the on going strategies the author used was tying to use certain words to incorporate all different senses in order to have the effect of the violins and the church. In the line that illistrates how the violins produced red an blue, I thought of Disney's fantasia. The movie uses color, and motion to describe a musical piece. The next thing the stands out in my mine was the reference to the composers Vavaldi as well as Brahms. These composers have different style as Elise demonstrated. Brahms is more relaxed and tranquil where Vivaldi is more intense. It is more powerful. This interpretation of the music also works well with how the author describes the light that is coming into the church. He makes a reference to milky light. Although we have said that a reference to milk can sometimes refer to a child, or youth, but in this case I think he literally means the light gets kind if cloudy. It isn't crisp light, instead, it is softened to a more milky light. To wrap up this poem, I struggle with the line about lead. "our violins were trapped in thin but solid sheets of lead." I remember talking about this line, and how it has meaning with how a violin is constructed? I will look at other people's responses and see how they interpreted it!!
