description
Arnold Schönberg, like his predecessors Beethoven and Schumann, stands for a departure to new musical horizons. Today's concert puts Schönberg's masterpiece in the context of a 100-year tradition. Nature and gardens turn into an all-encompassing resonance chamber of internal experience - both in Stefan George's magical gardens of desire as well as in Beethoven and Schumann
