Als Projekt des Mendelssohn-Bartholdy-Gymnasiums Berlin und den Staatlichen Museen zu Berlin wurde die Idee umgesetzt, Kunstwerke musikalisch zu betrachten. Franz-Michael Deimling schrieb daraufhin speziell für die SchülerInnen des Projektes neun Stücke in Reflexion zu ausgewählten Kunstwerken der Sammlungen. Das Ergebnis sind musikalische Bildbetrachtungen, die in dieser Ausgabe den Abbildungen der Kunstwerke gegenübergestellt sind. Zu hören sind die Werke unter anderem im YouTube-Projekt der Staatlichen Museen zu Berlin "3 Perspektiven auf 1 Werk". Die Stücke sind für Solo- bis Triobesetzungen für Flöte, Violine, Viola, Violoncello, Horn, Posaune, Vibraphon, Pauke und Klavier.
