Schoenberg - Verklärte Nacht (Transfigured Night)

Arnold Schoenberg (1874 - 1951) 20th century, a shift in 1899 as a string sextet wrote this work, and so modern that the Vienna Music Society, refused to perform it. It is 1902 in the Musikverein in Vienna, Premier Rose quartet (augmented by an additional cello and viola) was. Highly chromatic music and its content in a lot of pieces, stirred up controversy.

This was the first important work of Schoenberg and the influence of Wagner and Brahms (Schoenberg, who has always been a 'modern' thinking as a composer), a young musician in the show. It is a revolutionary piece of music as it is an evolutionary piece of music, Schoenberg and his desire to master 'evolution' was run before, not so much a commodity. This is before Schoenberg developed his twelve tone techniques, and when you can not Transfigured Night of the harmonies, the team is still a work based on tonality. This is a rare example of a chamber music work that also program music. This is a poem written by Richard Dehmel, depending on the Transfigured Night. A summary of the poem:

People are walking through a moonlit night, a female and male. Love, but she reveals that she was ashamed of other people's children, pregnant with a people like that sometimes. Accepting and loving him as a child, although it was with his own response. Unborn child, male, female, and at night it is dark to light transfigured.

Schoenberg composed one of the pieces and follow the music that is rich, complex, and emotional poem closely. What is the change of time signature changes, often with a smoldering intensity that finally a 'transformation' of the music at the end to resolve the charges. Music composer for the entire string orchestra arranged by the 1917 and 1943 in which it revised. This version is the video of the hearing.

Schoenberg's first twelve tone system, the compositions are written in a hundred years, and they still have a lot of the ball instead of sour words. Transfigured Night, has anyone heard his twelve tone that does not work if the hearing before Schoenberg, a feeling, an emotion theorists more than the composer was not to be surprised. Schoenberg Transfigured Night, where was it headed in a late romantic glimpses, but I think it was a Schoenberg composition, and shows that more than theoretical. The first row is a musician.

Complete poems by Dehmel:

Two people are bare, cold walk through the wilderness;

In addition to the race of the moon, they will look into it.

Tall oaks on the moon race,

Any clouds in the sky to light obscures,

The black boughs reach a point,

A female voice saying:

I've borne a child, why not,

I walk in on your next offense.

I have committed myself against a great offense.

I can not believe I would be happy

And yet I was strong anxiety

For something to fill my life for the joys of motherhood

And ought to, so I committed an effrontery,

Thus, shuddering, I allowed my penis

Will be embraced by an unknown man,

That the top and, I feel blessed for it.

Life has now taken his revenge:

Now that I have met you, oh you.

He walks with a clumsy gait,

He was up, running along the moon.

The light in her dark eyes are sunken.

A man's voice saying:

How You May Not

Your soul can be a burden;

Just how gleaming brightly in the universe!

There is a glow around everything;

Are you with me are floating on a sea of ​​cold,

It is a special warmth flickers

You have access to me if I am.

It's strange that your child will be transformed.

You are a child, if it was mine to bear;

If you have a glow in my hand,

You made me like a child himself.

He was surrounded by wide hips and grasps.

Air in their breathing and kissing.

Two people are generous, bright night to walk through.
