Schoenberg: Lieder (Glenn Gould Edition)

Amazon.com Schoenberg was one of Glenn Gould's favorite composers, and this selection of songs provides a fascinating rendering of the notorious Viennese modernist. The Book of the Hanging Garden is eerie and expressionist, but other earlier works are Straussian: it's always illuminating to be reminded of Schoenberg's debt to 19th-century Romanticism. And anything marked by Gould's Midas touch, of course, belongs near the CD player. --Joshua Cody Product description Schoenberg: Lieder - Ellen Faull, Helen Vanni, Donald Gramm, Cornelis Opthof, Glenn Gould / The Glenn Gould Edition / Sony Classical 2x Audio CD 1995 / SM2K 52 667 UPC 074645266725 // Arnold Schoenberg or Schönberg (/ˈʃɜːrnbɜːrɡ/, US also /ˈʃoʊn-/; German: [ˈʃøːnbɛɐ̯k]; 13 September 1874 – 13 July 1951) was an Austrian-American composer, music theorist, teacher, writer, and painter. He is widely considered one of the most influential composers of the 20th century. He was associated with the expressionist movement in German poetry and art, and leader of the Second Viennese School. As a Jewish composer, Schoenberg was targeted by the Nazi Party, which labeled his works as degenerate music and forbade them from being published. He immigrated to the United States in 1933, becoming an American citizen in 1941. /// Label: Sony Classical – SM2K 52 667 Series: The Glenn Gould Edition Format: 2 x CD, Compilation Country: US Released: 1995 Genre: Classical Style: Twelve-tone, Modern /// Tracklist: Lieder Zwei Gesänge Op. 1 Für Eine Baritonstimme Und Klavier Baritone Vocals – Donald Gramm Piano – Glenn Gould Text By – Karl Von Levetzow 1-1 1.
