EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the intense gaze and profound expression of Austrian composer Alban Berg (1885-1935), as he contemplates the score before him. Born in Vienna in 1885, Berg was a central figure in the Second Viennese School of musical composition, alongside Arnold Schoenberg and Anton Webern. His innovative works, which combined elements of atonality, serialism, and tonality, challenged the musical conventions of his time and continue to inspire musicians and audiences today. The image, taken in 1935, is a poignant reminder of Berg's significant contribution to the world of classical music. The photographer skillfully captures the depth of Berg's concentration, as he immerses himself in the intricacies of his compositions. The stark contrast between the white score and Berg's dark suit and the shadowy background adds to the sense of focus and intensity. Berg's life was marked by personal tragedy and political turmoil. He lost his mother at a young age and was deeply affected by the suicide of his wife, Manon Gropius, in 1918. During the Nazi era, his music was banned, and he was forced to go into hiding. Berg died in Vienna in 1935, leaving behind a legacy of groundbreaking compositions, including the opera "Wozzeck" and the violin concerto "To the Memory of an Angel." This photograph offers a glimpse into the complex and intriguing world of Alban Berg, a composer whose innovative works continue to captivate and inspire musicians and audiences around the world.
