Arnold Schoenberg - 5 Orchestral Pieces Op. 16 (1909)

Arnold Franz Walter Schoenberg or Schönberg (13 September 1874 – 13 July 1951) was an Austrian composer, music theorist, and painter. He was associated with the expressionist movement in German poetry and art, and leader of the Second Viennese School. With the rise of the Nazi Party, Schoenberg’s works were labelled degenerate music, because they were modernist, atonal and what even Paul Hindemith called “sonic orgies“ and “decadent intellectual efforts“ (Petropoulos 2014, 94–95). He emigrated to the United States of America in 1934. Please support my channel: Pieces (5) for orchestra, Op. 16 (1909) 1. Premonitions (Vorgefühle) (0:00) 2. The Past (Vergangenes) 2:12 3.
