His compositional style moved progressively from lush, late Wagnerian chromaticism to a complete break with traditional tonality, later organized theoretically as \"composition with twelve tones.\" This systematic control of all pitches evolved into a similar serialization of all of music's elements -- a revolutionary advance that dominated international composition through most of this century.\u003cbr\u003eThis edition of two of Schoenberg's most important orchestral works invites music lovers into the first steps of the revolution he helped bring about. The symphonic poem \u003ci\u003ePelleas und Melisande\u003c\/i\u003e (1902), based on Maurice Maeterlinck's play, reveals Schoenberg's expanding chromatic language. \u003ci\u003eThe Five Orchestral Pieces\u003c\/i\u003e (1909) demonstrates the composer's daring exploration of a music that renounces motivic connections as well as tonality. Both of these groundbreaking works are presented here in authoritative editions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 192\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.44 x 12.19 x 9.43 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 13, 2012\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51756137873696,"sku":"9780486281209","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/3d86715f38d26ac3650e820508506140.webp?v=1780075257","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/five-orchestral-pieces-and-pelleas-und-melisande-in-full-score-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
