Time’s Echo Live: An Exploration of Music, War, and Memory, Part 1
Words: Decades before Schoenberg’s expulsion from Nazi Germany, the composer had described art as "the cry of distress uttered by those who experience firsthand the fate of mankind.” This program provides an introduction to the festival as a whole, while also recounting and exploring the meaning of Schoenberg’s extraordinary journey: from the son of a Jewish shoe manufacturer in Vienna to a Lutheran convert intent on revolutionizing German music, from a political activist determined to avert the great European catastrophe to the creator of the first major musical memorial to the Holocaust.
Music: Arnold Schoenberg, Verklärte Nacht (“Transfigured Night") for string sextet, Op. 4
