What does it mean to be modern? 100 years on, Southbank Sinfonia explores three works from composers who challenged every preconceived notion about the music that preceded them, at a time when the art world was remaking itself anew.

Schoenburg’s Erwartung is a radical new vision of opera, delivered in one intensely demanding monologue from its soprano. It has been posthumously grouped as one of the ‘atonally’ labelled works that the composer wrote after his wife left him for a younger man, with the “aim to represent in slow motion everything that occurs during a single second of maximum spiritual excitement, stretching it out to half an hour”.

Debussy had a similarly radical vision of opera, wishing for “no time, no place, no big scene...”. In his words, “music in opera is far too predominant. The characters whom I see are at the mercy of life or destiny.”
