When music inspires

Classical, jazz, rock, blues… music has always been a source of inspiration for writers.

Numerous musical characters, real or fictional, and musical titles inhabit literature. And many musical instruments and trends become essential elements of the narrative. Sound art thus inspires writing, creation, inventiveness and the development of ideas.

We’ve put together a selection of music-inspired titles – novels, detective stories, short stories, thrillers – for you to borrow from our eLectures digital book platform.

Enjoy your discovery and your reading!
