ABSTRACT

As the expression of the direct affinity between civilization and nature, and as a place of enjoyment suited to meditation or repose, the garden thus acquires the cosmic significance of an idealised image of the world, a “paradise” in the etymological sense of the term, and yet a testimony to a culture, a style, an age, and often to the originality of a creative artist (ICOMOS, 1982). Landscape garden of the eighteenth-century England was a cultural phenomenon that all at that time social elements were cohered. Landscape garden of the eighteenth-century England was the visible space that one experienced a main character of a story in various landscape at the same time that visitors were spectators. Music of the eighteenth-century England was an acoustic space to be able to feel various times and places that could not look. According to this, I explained that music is a landscape not to see but to listen. So the new visual way that can describe eighteenth-century British music is provided. Therefore, I considered the music of the early eighteenth-century England as iconographical music and the music of the mid eighteenth-century England as naturalistic music.
