Download or read book The Atonal Music of Arnold Schoenberg 1908 1923 written by Bryan R. Simms and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2000-11-16 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1908 and 1923, Arnold Schoenberg began writing music that went against many of the accepted concepts and practices of this art. Largely following his intuition during these years, he composed some of the masterpieces of the modern repertoire--including Pierrot lunaire and Erwartung--works that have since provoked a large, though fragmented, body of critical and analytical writing. In this book, Bryan Simms combines a historical study with a close analytical reading of the music to give us a new and richer understanding of Schoenberg's seminal work during this period.

This book was released on 1984 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.
