The Violin Concerto (Op. 36) by Arnold Schoenberg dates from Schoenberg's time in the United States, where he had moved in 1933 to escape the Nazis. The piece was written in 1936, the same year as the String Quartet No. 4. At the time of its completion, Schoenberg was living in Brentwood, California, and had just accepted a teaching position at the University of California, Los Angeles. ==Style and form== Schoenberg had made a return to tonal writing upon his move to America and, though the Violin Concerto uses twelve-tone technique, its neoclassical form demanded a mimesis of tonal melody, and hence a renunciation of the motivic technique used in his earlier work in favour of a thematic structure . The basic row of the concerto is: While the row is not necessary for understanding any good twelve-note piece, an awareness of it in this concerto is useful because the row is very much in the foreground, and is quite obviously abstracted from Schoenberg's concrete melodic-thematic thinking . It is in a three movement fast-slow-fast form, traditional for concertos: #''Poco allegro—Vivace''. Opinion is divided about the form of the first movement. According to one authority, it is in sonata form , while another asserts it is a large ternary form, concluding with a cadenza and a coda . It employs a wide variety of row forms, often in families associated by hexachordal content . #''Andante grazioso'' #''Finale: Allegro''. The last movement is a rondo with an unusually dynamic development. It only gradually becomes clear that the underlying character is that of a march. There is a second cadenza just before the end, which rounds off the whole work in cyclic fashion . The concerto was first published in 1939 by G. Schirmer. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Violin Concerto (Schoenberg)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
