This book is Schoenberg’s last completed theoretical work and represents his final thoughts on the subject of classical and romantic harmony. Schoenberg’s argument is supported by music examples, which range from entire development sections of classical symphonies to analyses of the experimental harmonic progressions of Strauss, Debussy, Reger and Schoenberg’s own early music.
