Essential Schoenberg

50 Tracks, 4:48:34

Viennese composer Arnold Schoenberg was a pivotal and somewhat controversial figure in 20th-century music. He revolutionised composition through the development of atonality and the twelve-tone technique, challenging traditional harmonic structures and influencing the course of modern music. His innovative approach greatly impacted future composers, such as Alban Berg and Anton Webern, who were instrumental in the Second Viennese School. Throughout his life, he advocated the idea that music could express complex human emotions, leaving a lasting legacy that continues to inspire musicians today.
