As you've probably noticed, these are the same guys + 1 that played the Schubert Quintet which I recently posted. What a gig that must've been!

When Schoenberg wrote this, he wasn't thinking of the nightmares of having to split this to put on YouTube!!! There wasn't many places I could do this cos they hardly ever stop playing. Please forgive me for ruining the atmosphere of the piece! Hope you enjoy it anyway???

  • Wow- this is Schoenberg? But .... but... it's actual MUSIC!

  • esta pieza es preciosa,me encanta ...la interpretacion me parece fabulosa

  • @featheon Please don't nail me down on "the Bach period" ... I just meant that composers like Schoenberg or especially Webern related their music to that of the polyphonic era. Of course there are a lot of others who did polyphonic music and of course JS Bach was regarded as old-fashioned during the last decades of his life (even by his own sons). Yet to me he is the most outstanding composer using polyphonic techniques. Seems like in some sense he finished that period with many masterpieces...

  • @musikfreund69 Do you really think that polyphonic structures characterize "the Bach period"? After all, Bach was seen as old-fashioned for his time, given the rise of homophonic styles since Arcadelt, and of course, the rhetoric of Rousseau and the Florentines.

  • Um sonho onde se abre uma porta para um labirinto liquefeito.

  • I loved it!

  • the violia player looks like ted bundy. coincidence ? I think not

  • @SepiaLatimanus If you would get deeper into the music of Arnold Schoenberg you would find more traditional elements (mainly from the late romantic period) than you now think of, and a lot of influence from the Bach period (polyphonic structures). And you would also find out that his music (even that one using serial technique) is based NOT on a mathematicel idea but on inspiration. I would strongely advise you to listen to his late Piano Concerto op. 42. This is full of great musical ideas.

  • @johnstrieder thank you

  • @StefanPolzin1 @freectee Arnold Schönberg: String Sextet "Verklärte Nacht" (transfigured night) op. 4
