In a letter addressed in 1909 to Ferruccio Busoni, Schoenberg described his recent compositions as works that demand “belief and conviction.” They were products of pure imagination, he said, not objects to be judged by outward appearance, and they were intended only for those who take “the side of all who seek.” With these generalizations he described a new style of music with which he had been experimenting for about a year.

Também aqui a imaginação, tal como no texto referente a Bartok, embora neste se pareça opôr os dois compositores no que respeita a esta questão! Não será este o denominador comum de toda a composição, tonal, atonal, dodecafónica, electrónica, etc?!

São essas mesmas, as oposições que eu vou lançando aqui para o blogue! Tudo completamente intencional.
