Intensely polemical from its first publication, every aspect of this work was met with extreme reactions, from stark dismissal to outrage. Even Schoenberg reviled it. Despite the controversy, this book became highly regarded and widely read among musicians, scholars, and social philosophers. Marking a major turning point in his musicological philosophy, Adorno located a critique of musical reproduction as internal to composition itself, rather than as a matter of the reproduction of musical performance. Consisting of two distinct essays, "Schoenberg and Progress" and "Stravinsky and Reaction," this work poses the musical extremes in which Adorno perceived the struggle for the cultural future of Europe, between human emancipation and barbarism, between the compositional techniques and achievements of Schoenberg and Stravinsky. In this completely new translation - presented along with an extensive introduction by distinguished translator Robert Hullot-Kentor - this book emerges as a key to the whole of Adorno's illustrious and influential oeuvre. 600 10 Schoenberg, Arnold, |d1874-1951. |=^A18534 600 10 Stravinsky, Igor, |d1882-1971. |=^A27922 650 0 Music |y20th century |xHistory and criticism. |=^A147357 650 0 Music |xPhilosophy and aesthetics. |=^A18895 700 1 Hullot-Kentor, Robert. |=^A242062 994 C0 |bERE 596 3 998 1043161
