Arnold Schoenberg?s Second String Quartet revolutionized western art music. For nearly a century, it has inspired composers, scholars, critics, performers, and visual artists. Severine Neff re-creates for her readers the quartet's historical, cultural, and musical background?its introduction of the human voice, its genesis during a personal crisis in the composer's life, the scandal at its premiere, and its endlessly controversial reception, both critical and analytic. This volume includes a newly edited, authoritative score of the quartet, as well as previously unavailable and newly translated texts by Grant Chorley.

Brand New Miniature Score: The first miniature since 1937, created especially for this edition and meticulously edited by the author.

Newest and Most Comprehensive Study of the Quartet includes a wide array of contemporary, analytical, and critical materials:
-The Score: a study-sized version of the complete score.
-Culture and Aesthetics: written by the editor, examining circumstances that led to Schoenberg?s composition, the quartet?s infamous premiere and the riots that followed, artistic reactions (including Kandinsky?s), the quartet?s form and design.
-Commentaries on the Quartet: the historical background of the work?s creation told in documents, plus analytical and critical essays that examine the piece and its reception and cultural influence.
-New Translations From The German by Grant Chorley, specifically for this edition.
-Authority: Severine Neff is widely recognized as a premier scholar of Schoenberg and twentieth-century harmonic practices.
