Arnold Schoenberg

Mehr zum Buch

A new feature of this paperback is the addition of a chronicle of contemporary events - such as the birth of Hitler - which put Schoenberg's life into its historical context and help significantly in understanding his music. The essays collected in this volume, now including corrections, represent a comprehensive attempt to shed light on the work and personality of Schoenberg in the pertinent yet unaccountably neglected context of his preoccupation with Judaism and biblical themes.
