Arnold Schönberg’s Waltzes for string orchestra will be performed to an international audience on January 1, 2022. Members of the Vienna Philharmonic will play these early pieces composed by the “conservative revolutionary” in the film during the interval of the New Year’s Concert.

“I want: The utmost unreality!” Arnold Schönberg’s drama with music in one act “Die glückliche Hand” (1910–13) – a model of musical expressionism – was premiered in Vienna’s Volksoper as many as eleven years after its completion.

Around 1920, Arnold Schönberg tried out a game for four armed forces with his coalition or alliance chess, inspired by the World War I military arsenal. We have summarized the basic rules and game variants, the figures’ moves and their distribution, and also prepared 3D scans of the figures. Try it yourself!
