Schoenberg and Brahms – they sound like separate worlds. However, the twelve-tone composer was partly responsible for saving the late Romantic for the Modern Age. With Brahms’s “Tragische Ouvertüre” and the American minimalism of John Adams’s “Harmonielehre” the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin finds a frame for Schoenberg’s songs, whose huge contrasts demonstrate the remarkable breadth of his music.
