"If it is art, it is not for all, and if it is for all, it is not art."

In this sharp, uncompromising address, he defends the composer's duty to the text: not to entertain, not to soothe, but to translate meaning with precision and depth. Music, he argues, must obey something higher than taste--something as exacting, and as rare, as truth itself.

Arnold Schoenberg (1874-1951) was an Austrian composer, theorist, and painter who reshaped modern music from the ground up. As the inventor of the twelve-tone technique, he broke with tradition not for shock, but for necessity--seeking structure where tonality could no longer serve.
