Anton Webern's KinderstĂĽck (Children's Piece) from 1924. All 55 seconds of it.

Austere, teasing, gentle, true. It calls on us.

Talking of Webern, here is a striking photograph of Arnold Shoenberg, Anton Webern and Erwin Stein, at a Dutch beach (Zandvoort) in March 1914. Taken by Alban Berg. Schoenberg Archive PH2225.

We note the date: just before the old order tumbled.

The composition feels like a 1920s Walker Evans, and are these perhaps three Jazz dudes on a 1970s record cover?

Anton Webern 1983 – Kiew/Kyjïv/Kiev

Das haben mir meine Eltern offenbar 1984 von einer Bildungsreise nach (damals) Leningrad mitgebracht. Die Orchesterwerke von Anton Webern. Zweisprachig (aber im Prinzip sogar mindestens viersprachig: ukrainisch, russisch, italienisch und deutsch. Gedruckt in Kiew 1983. Sicherlich nicht lizenziert durch die U

@connect_icut @vinylrecords Got me wondering what my #lastfm recently ranked artists would be, had I used it: Maybe #RAPFerreira? #AntonWebern perhaps? Probably #TheClash, they are always at the ready round these parts.

But anyway - surprised to see #TheYoungGods on your list! They were on my radar in the 80s, initially because The Swans Young God EP left such a deep cleft in my brain. But I did like their early records a lot. Didn't realise they've released like a dozen more albums since.

Glenn Gould playing Anton Webern's Variations, Op. 27 (1936) filmed in 1974. I'm captivated by this man's crossover hand technique.

I’m not a natural fan of the classical voice (or in jazz for that matter*). It is perhaps ironical that I delight in #HeatherHarper’s treatment of #Webern’s #VierLieder (4 songs) für #Singstimme (voiced forcefully?) & #Klavier, Op.12. #CharlesHarper, #piano. Members of #LSO. Directed by Pierre #Boulez. By comparison, imo, #Schoenberg’s 2nd String Qrt is marred by the addition of a soprano. Harper’s performance has an instrumental quality to it. #AntonWebern
*#LadyDay notwithstanding.

#AntonWebern by Opus. Wonderful.

How NOT to have tepid syrup poured into your ears until it overflows, ruining your evening attire. #AntonWebern #LSO #JulliardStringQuartet #PierreBoulez
Opuses 1–31.
