Though Schoenberg was the one to originally invent the 12-tone method of composition, of the three friends Webern was the one who applied it most vigorously. While both Schoenberg and Berg took varying amounts of liberties in their use of the system, Webern was the first to grow entire compositions out of the tone row, thus paving the way for integrated serialists like

Shreffler, Webern and the Lyric Impulse (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1994), pp. xvi+256 KEYWORDS: Shreffler, Webern, lyricism, atonality, analysis, sketch study, postmodern, vocal works 1.INTRODUCTION. 2. LYRICISM. 3. BACKGROUND. 4. INTERDISCIPLINARY APPROACH. ... References INTRODUCTION. [1] It is testimony to Anton Webern's stature that the contemporary erosion of structural formalism has not witnessed any concomitant decline of interest in his music. Attention has shifted rather toward the composer's neglected expressivity and poetic sensibility. In Webern and the Lyric Impulse: Songs and Fragments on Poems of Georg Trakl , Anne Shreffler adds momentum to the current swing away from a traditional structuralist approach. Her thesis is that the composer's more intuitive alter ego and the "lyric impulse" at the core of his music has been undeservedly overlooked. Shreffler condemns Webern's exclusive "association with a cerebral, detached aesthetic" as a historical bias fostered by the "anti-Romantic agenda of the post-war serialists," an overreaction against 19th-century sentimentalism, and the "Darmstadt project's" reification of systematic relationships in all musicparticularly St. Anton's (p.3). [2] Shreffler's lyrical Webern is no longer the calculating Mr. Spock of "sparseness, severity, and control" like the familiar logical one, an "intellectually driven genius" (p. 4) determined to extricate himself from the lugubrious excesses of musical Romanticism. The meticulous musical engineer who memorized train schedules, once revered for "building structures from sound itself," is transmogrified into Shreffler's "champion of the lyric genre" (p. 4), an expressive humanist invoking a keen poetic sensibility to avert an aesthetic crisis caused by an arid and overly mechanistic compositional technique.

Austrian composer and conductor. Early tuition from his mother, a pianist. (Most of his works were written in her memory.) Studied at Klagenfurt with Edwin Komauer, composing first works in 1899. Entered Vienna Univ. 1902, studying musicology with Guido Adler. Studied comp. with Pfitzner but became pupil of Schoenberg Largely ignored except by the BBC in his lifetime, Webern's mus. became a rallying-point for the post-1945 generation of European composers, such as Stockhausen, Boulez, and Maderna (and for some of the older generation, e.g. Stravinsky and Eimert). They were attracted by the way in which his mus., through its sheer concentration, opened up a new and more complete serialism based on the est. of the relationship between a particular note and a particular quality of sound. Even in the earliest works to which he gave an opus no. there is preoccupation with the inter-relationship of symmetrical structures. From 1908 until the late 1920s Webern wrote in a free atonal style. A characteristic of many of the works of this period is their epigrammatic brevity. The 4th of his

69. The Musical Times: Anton Webern 1885-1945 anton von webern, as his name originally was, came from a family of Austrian civil servants. He was born in Vienna on December 3, 1885, and spent his youth http://www.musicaltimes.co.uk/archive/obits/194601webern.html

Home Archive by Erwin Stein T Here are some bars from his string quartet. Webern had a deep insight into music, old and new. He was an admirable teacher, although he never held an official position. Young musicians from all over the world came to receive his instruction. As a conductor he achieved perfect performances, provided he was given sufficient time for preparation. He was an indefatigable rehearser and the results which he obtained from his choirs of Viennese workmen were astounding. During the last few years his music was banned in Austria and Germany, and he was not allowed to take part in any musical activity. Yet it is known that he continued teaching in secret. The circumstances of his death have so far not been revealed. Some tragic accident seems to have ended the life of one of our finest musicians. Musical Times, January 1946

Welcome to WEBERN ON LINE A web site for the happy few admirers of Anton Webern's music, the most radical composer of the Second Viennese School A portrait of Anton Webern, by Oskar Kokoschka (1912) PICTURES' ALBUM LINKS TEXTS The musical works of Anton Webern are not easy to understand for most of the audience. Concentration of gestures, intellectual inaccessibility and heavy formal construction are characteristic of his music. But there is also, hidden inside this formalism, an intense feeling and a deep expression of passion, mystics and devotion to artistic work.
