This book traces the evolution of Arnold Schoenberg's twelve-tone method for a nonspecialist audience. Charles Rosen analyzes Schoenberg's expressionist beginnings and how they relate in theory, performance, and musical experience to the subsequent system of atonality" set forth in the music of Berg, Webem, and Schoenberg himself. Originally published in 1981. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
