This important new study reassesses the position of Anton Webern in
twentieth-century music. The twelve-note method of composition
adopted by Anton Webern had profound consequences for composers of
the next generation such as Stockhausen and Boulez, who saw
Webern's music as revolutionary. In her detailed analyses, however,
Professor Bailey demonstrates a fundamentally traditional aspect to
Webern's creativity, when describing his own music. Professor
Bailey analyses all Webern's twelve-note works (from Op. 17 to Op.
31) i.e. the instrumental and vocal music written between 1924 and
1943. These analyses draw on sketch material recently made
available at the Paul Sacher Foundation in Basel and include
transcriptions of little-known drafts and sketches. A most valuable
aspect of the book is the inclusion in appendices of such materials
as a complete explanation of the row content of each work, the
correct prime form of each of the rows from Op. 20 onwards, with a
matrix constructed for each, and exhaustive row analyses.
