What is Schoenberg; about?

Schönberg stands alone. In the evolution of occidental music there never has been a musician of similar character and gifts. It may be long before his contribution to music will be understood. Just as Leonardo da Vinci and Cezanne searched unceasingly for newly perceived truth in color and form, and interpretation on a two-dimensional surface of three-dimensional space, so Schönberg has enormously enlarged the tonal resources of tempered intervals and scale. In melodic line, harmony, counterpart, rhythm, flexibility and subtlety of counter-rhythms, balance, structure and relief of essential and dominating notes in harmony, he has been unendingly creative and courageous. - Foreword
