His unhurried, almost aristocratic attitude to life and his extreme self-criticism in professional matters resulted in an extraordinarily small musical output, but it includes towering masterpieces such as the operas Wozzeck and Lulu, and his last work, the Violin Concerto. All of Berg's substantial works are discussed in this Companion which brings together a team of experts who write from a variety of historical and critical perspectives, outlining the place of the music in the cultural history of its time and recontextualising it against the broader twentieth-century interplay of fashions, aesthetics and ideas. 600 10 Berg, Alban, |d1885-1935 |xCriticism and interpretation. 730 0 Cambridge companions online. |5net 776 |z0-521-56489-1 776 |z0-521-56374-7 700 1 Pople, Anthony, |eeditor. 830 0 Cambridge companions to music. 906 BOOK
