Most of the tunes are instrumental, with a few having lyrics. There is a book with high quality paper and printing available, which includes a CD in the back of the book. I'm listening to it as I type this - I think it could be classified as... easy listening jazz?
Nice pictures, nice art... it's a great concept I think, pairing pictures with art. As an installation, it would be cool have a picture set up with a sensor so the picture would have its own theme song played when someone walked up in front of it to contemplate the picture.
The sites I linked the artists' names to above can both be reached by going to a joint page (with links going either way), and the book/CD can be purchased at Amnicola Net Shop, with specific details here.
One final note about the pictures - while the reproductions in the book are first class excellent reproductions, this artist's paintings have a lot of depth in their original form that doesn't fully translate onto paper - both the dimensionality of the pictures and their colors, which are quite amazing in the originals.
