Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven did not come from Vienna, nor did they spend their entire careers working there, although, should we count him, Schubert did.

It is perhaps worth reminding ourselves that it is the first of only two completed concertos of his ‘own’. One might be tempted to consider the Monn and Handel reworkings from 1932-3 as preparation, but Schoenberg did not tend to work like that; he had, after all, composed Gurreliederwith little experience of orchestral writing and none whatsoever on that scale. Jascha Heifetz in his dressing room, 1936(University of Michigan Music Society) Like Liszt for the piano, albeit without personal transcendental mastery of the instrument, Schoenberg out-virtuosoed the virtuosi with a work declared unplayable: all […]
