Bernstein on Schoenberg

It could be very easily argued (because it's true) that the music addressed by this lecture was the inevitable result of the evolutionary trajectory of all of Western music . Nevertheless the compositions of Arnold Schoenberg represent a hugely compelling intellectual/artistic achievement that could only have come from true visionary genius . Learning to hear and appreciate the free atonality 1908-1923 and 12 tone music of Schoenberg can and will allow you to hear all of music with fresh phonological ears . This is music beyond the precipice the Tao the Ching where Yang becomes Yin and Yin becomes Yang . It is nothing to fear it can re-illuminate and re-inform your musical world . It is where all of music history was heading . My god don't you want to know? This lecture ends with "The Berg Violin Concerto" ; five posts it took to get to the end . So on my channel there are 4 more posts continuing this lecture .
