Revolutionary expressionism: painting, music and social unrest in interwar Europe

Immerse yourself in the fascinating realm of expressionism. An art movement that transcended mere expression to reflect the troubled soul of a Europe in turmoil.

Anton Friedrich Wilhelm von Webern (3 December 1883 – 15 September 1945), better known as Anton Webern[a] (German: [ˈantoːn ˈveːbɐn]ⓘ), was an Austrian composer and conductor. His music was among the most radical of its milieu in its concision and steadfast embrace and application of then novel atonal and twelve-tone techniques in an increasingly rigorous manner, somewhat after the Franco-Flemish School of his studies under Guido Adler. With his mentor Arnold Schoenberg and his colleague Alban Berg, Webern was at the core of those within the broader circle of the Second Viennese School.

Which 20th century composers would you have been most fascinated to meet? Would you like Shostakovich or Schoenberg?

All of them!!! All of them. All of these dear Kinder, all of them. To teach them, speak with them, ach... Yes... Of course... All the great atonals and theoretical musicologists, musicians... All of them, I would expose to them my lost essay on harmony and atonality... I would love them all... Messiaen seems closer but Ach, Schoenberg and Berg, Webern... Prokofiev... Paart, Alma Deutscher, I would tell her to slow down... But these are contemporary. Anyways, yes! All which you suggest, for perhaps that music that does not entice me then I would change my view of if able to understand better the composer. But all of the atonals one! Atonality!!!

Hi all,

I've finally released a music/art/eBook project that I've been working on since 2014 entitled Kinderstück. I've also launched a kickstarter to fund a physical release of the project.

Physical copies of the book will sell for $15 plus shipping (and all physical purchases via the kickstarter project come with a download link for the digital version). The kickstarter is here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/seanharold/kinderstuck-physical-copies

Or you can purchase the digital-only version now for $10 at this link (which includes the eBook, the musical recording, and a PDF of the book): https://seanharold.bandcamp.com/

Here is a description of the project: Kinderstück is a multidisciplinary children's book which combines visual art, text, and music. At the heart of Kinderstück is a children's story about loneliness and coping with loss. Presented as a six-part poem, the narrative follows a girl who hates noise but loves her mother's voice. When the girl loses her mother's song, she must find a new way forward.

The music of Kinderstück is written for ondes Martenot and electronics (as performed by ondist Suzanne Farrin). The release includes a recording of the work, as well as a download of the eBook. The eBook contains seven full illustrations (the cover, plus six more; illustrated by Yoko Furusho) as well as the full musical score (which is partially illustrated). Moreover, the eBook is enhanced so that the music will play while reading the book or while looking at the score. Advancing the page in the eBook will automatically trigger the corresponding music to play, allowing the reader to experience every aspect of Kinderstück at once. Likewise, the music will automatically trigger page turns as it plays, allowing the listener to follow along with the recording.
