Page "Surrealism" Paragraph 49

Even though Breton by 1946 responded rather negatively to the subject of music with his essay Silence is Golden, later Surrealists, such as Paul Garon, have been interested in — and found parallels to — Surrealism in the improvisation of jazz and the blues.

Jazz and blues musicians have occasionally reciprocated this interest.

For example, the 1976 World Surrealist Exhibition included performances by David Honeyboy Edwards.
