Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The article discusses the issue of using Arnold Schoenberg’s music as film music in the adaptation of his opera Moses und Aron by Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet. The article examines the film soundtrack, by using audiovisual analysis tools, trying to answer the question whether the attempt to adapt avant-garde music to the language of cinema was successful or not. In the further part of the article, the authors relate the results of this analysis to Schoenberg's musical philosophy and musical aesthetics.
