5.0 out of 5 stars Hard Work but Worth It!, 6 Oct 2009
By G. A. Readman "Dr Bugland" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
When I first Schoenberg's work, I had real difficulty in understanding what all the fuss was about with atonality. It had no rhyme or reason for me, it was just sounds which were devoid of any comfortable structure, ie harmony and consonance. With the progress of time and becoming more educated in music, I realised that both harmony and consonance were very confining - there is only so much one can do within certain key signatures. Schoenberg thought outside of this convention and focussed on note and rythmic structure, rather than within the confines of a certain key. These string quartets are a fabulous introduction to his experimentations with atonality. Not only that, they will educate your ear to appreciate music which is composed outside the usual harmonic conventions. It involves much hard work, but it's worth it.
