Summary

Possibly Schoenberg's finest work, and certainly one that he held close to his heart, is his unfinished opera Moses und Aron. Even more than his play Der biblische Weg, Moses und Aron represents Schoenberg's finest attempt at meshing his philosophical ideas with his artistry. It is a work that can be approached on many different levels: as an example of his twelve-tone system, as a work of biblical commentary, or as an attempt to work out the problems facing the Jew in the modern world
