delirium clemens

“The Skandalkonzert of March 31, 1913 was a concert conducted by Arnold Schoenberg in the Great Hall of the Musikverein (Vienna Concert Society). “The audience, shocked by the expressionism and experimentalism of the Second Viennese School, began rioting, and the concert was ended prematurely. The fight between a concert organizer and Oscar Straus led to a trial.”
