It was written between 1914-15 during a metaphysical phase before Benjamin embraced Marxism. This text emphasises the young person's, as opposed to the adult's, approach to colour: 'for the person who sees with a child's eyes, it marks boundaries, it is not a layer of something superimposed on matter, as it is with adults'. This work continues my interest in art-based texts - from 'The Kiss' (1985) to my opera 'Facing Goya' (2000\/02)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e© Michael Nyman 2003\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Chester Music","offers":[{"title":"Vocal Score","offer_id":46034885640271,"sku":"CH66561","price":12.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Full Score","offer_id":46034895700047,"sku":"CH66726","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Set of String Parts","offer_id":46034895732815,"sku":"CH66737","price":24.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/ef590669fb90e5da85b810d46f486a95.jpg?v=1783613632","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/ja\/products\/nyman-a-childs-view-of-colour-chester","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
