Arnold Schoenberg: Father of Modern Music 

Wow - a glimpse into an era when people on TV took great modern music seriously. Many thanks for uploading it.

As great a composer and thinker as there was in the 20th century. His music takes time and effort to comprehend, but once you do, it is a life-long love. It is never long until I come back to this remarkable repertoire.

Wonderful insights into the personality and artistry of this great composer.

Arnold Schoenberg's music has inspired me ever since I first heard it when I was in high school, and it continues to inspire me to this day

Wonderful historic video. I hope that more people will watch things like this and not be so afraid of dissonant music. The second Viennese school was extraordinary!

This was before producers figured out that TV should be used in commercial ways to make money for themselves-sit-coms, game shows, etc

Great addition to RU-vid - wish there was more to this. Highlights Schoenberg's creativity in multiple media. Interesting to hear Kolisch's accounts of European V American reception of Schoenberg's music (esp. Quartets) in the early decades after its composition.

Sehr schönes Video, vielen Dank!

Thank you very much for posting this.

Arnold Schoenberg rocks!

Wonderful. Thanks for putting this up

Amazing! Larry WAS handsome in a slightly Rod Serling way...'Are YOU the father of Ronald [sic] Schoenberg?" PRICELESS! I'd love to know the year that this was made - around 1964 I'm guessing.

Larry seems refreshingly amiable. I would have imagined being the son of the rather fearsome and austere Schoenberg would have made him rather self conscious or neurotic.

The first Quartet...the summing up of all quartets before. A v e r y great masterpiece,,,while the 2nd,,,his farewell to tonality rules...emancipation!. Privileged to have studied with his student Emil Danenberg .

ascvideo Many thanks from Lima, Perú for this historic interview. It's very significant that between the Schoenberg's personal things there were a paint box, because the Maestro was also a talented painter. Indeed, he was friend of the main german & austrian painters of the 1910 &, if I'm not wrong, he was tempted to develop himself as a painter more than a musician. Thanks again.

OMG!!! It's Gertrude!

Larry was about 23 here, 39 years younger than Arnold Schonberg's first child!

Er hat Musik in sich. Musik strahlte von him aus.

Extraordinary!

he was a genius...

Schoenberg as a painter.

The "Father of modern music" was more than just one composer; Igor Stravinsky, Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel. With them follows Bartok and Schönberg.

what year

what? explain - whenwas this?

His 2nd wife was 24 years younger than him

I studied with Truman Fisher, and he disregarded the music of Webern.

Look. He's great. But he's not the father of modern music. Atonality and 12 tone is not main stream in modern music.

The father of modern music is called Richard Wagner, but never mind.

I must voice my discontent for the music of this man. Therefore: I dislike the music of this man.

Father of modern music! Terrible, total disharmony.
