20th Century Music 1900-1999

Stylistic Characteristics Heavily influenced by modern technology including electronic instruments, recording, and distribution. Composers became more freely experimental creating a much wider variety of music. Musical ensembles were much more flexibly defined in numbers and instruments from traditional ensembles. The traditional rules of music were bent and broken in regard to form, tonality, and instrument use.

Igor Stravinsky Impact on Period: Pushed the concept of form and structure for the modern ballet. The extreme dissonance, use of rhythm, and choreography sent the premier audience of Rite of Spring to a near riot. Year range for important compositions in this period: 1907-1919 Composition #1: Rite of Spring Composition #2: The Firebird

Arnold Schoenberg Impact on Period: The first to use the 12 tone row in composition. All 12 chromatic notes were treated equally in relation to each other creating complete atonality. Year range for important compositions in this period: 1928-1949 Composition #1: Variations for Orchestra, Op. 31 Composition #2: Piano Concerto, Op. 42

John Cage Impact on period: Cage’s avant-garde style was largely influenced by psychology and philosophy. Cage aimed to challenge what music could be defined as. Year range for important compositions in this period: 1937-1960 Composition #1: 4’ 33” Composition #2: Sonata II for Prepared Piano
