Stravinsky and Schoenberg: 100 Years Part 2

This week in our exploration of the past 100 years of modernism in  music we take a look at the legacy of Arnold Schoenberg. The 1912  performance of Pierrot Lunaire created a model of atonality that  continues to influence modern composers in the present day.
