Jack Boss takes a unique approach to analyzing Schoenberg's twelve-tone music, adapting the composer's notion of a 'musical idea' - problem, elaboration, solution - as a theoretical framework. Containing analytical readings of key works including Moses und Aron, this study provides the reader with a clearer understanding of this vitally important composer.
1. Musical idea and symmetrical ideal; 2. Suite for Piano, Op. 25: varieties of idea in Schoenberg's earliest twelve-tone music; 3. Woodwind Quintet, Op. 26: the twelve-tone idea reanimates a large musical form; 4. Three Satires, Op. 28, #3: the earliest example of the 'symmetrical ideal' in a (more or less) completely combinatorial context; 5. Piano Piece, Op. 33a: the 'symmetrical ideal' conflicts with and is reconciled to row order; 6. Fourth String Quartet, Op. 37, mvt. I: two motives give rise to contrasting row forms, meters, textures and tonalities (and are reconciled) within a large sonata form; 7. Moses und Aron: an incomplete musical idea represents an unresolved conflict between communicating with God using word or image; 8. String Trio, Op. 45: a musical idea (and a near-death experience) is expressed as a conflict between alternative row forms.
