Schoenberg: Moses und Aron

Schoenberg: Moses und Aron

Sung in German. Live Recording from the Vienna State Opera 2006, Co-production with the Teatro Real, Madrid

Directed by Reto Nickler and Stage Design by Wolfgang Gussmann


Franz Grundheber & Thomas Moser

Chorus and Orchestra of the Vienna State Opera, Daniele Gatti

World Premiere

“Despite the flood of brilliant music that evokes God, Moses, Aron, Israelites, an orgy, and everyone and everything else, the music is essentially only a messenger. And that is the radical, reflexive idea here: that even this opera itself is probably inadequate to convey the basic unknowability of a higher power. That Schoenberg even attempted to address all of this -- using a multiplicity of techniques in the same piece -- is a bit formidable. He tackles a project with dimensions and implications that are far beyond what most of us can even conceive.” MusicWeb
