Music Art

Not only do i need the right communication to get across to the artist i need something to wow them therefor im going to look at designs/art based around music so i can relate to music in an art form.

All these were found from just searching "music posters", they are so many good ones but these i feel are the best. 
The top image is a vector based design of a woman and her hair but the way the hair is done stand out a lot and it may represent how the music flows, the typography used on that poster matches the whole feel greatly by following the waves of the hair. The 2nd top left is a Saul Bass style design and as he is one of my favourite artist i like this idea of mixing Saul Bass' style into music. The 2nd to top right shows an example of a new style nightclub design and this shows me that neon colours, shiny surfaces, LED style lighting give that feel of being in the nightclub. The one next to it is a in a style of low art and reminds me of 1980's english punk. The rest all have a certain thing i like which may influence me.
When seeing all these designs its clear that not all styles fit everyone therefor im going have to over come the obstacle of catering for everyone, i could do multiple posters aiming at different genres but i would like at least 1 poster for all. To combat that problem i thought id look into music designs which include notes or speaker or instruments so it relates to music and not the genre.
Yet again im unsure about these as there werent many good designs, the speakers designs felt a bit to nightclub-y whilst the guitars felt too rock and the instrumental notes to classical.... However i found this absolute stunning design of a woman with headphones and her hair become a nice vector styling where as the headphone cables go into a title, i think this kind of thing that relates to music and has beauty but no specific genre favoritism could work.
