“…Yet I doubt avant-garde music has changed human musicality in the cognitive sense, because musicality in that sense is based on musical practices which are widespread within a culture. Thus even icons of the avant-garde like Schoenberg, who have appreciative and responsive listeners (Auner, 1999;Mencke et al 2019) have a limited public reach. "Called upon to say something about my public," Schoenberg wrote in a 1930 essay, "I have to confess: I do not believe I have one."…”

A growing number of researchers across the sciences and humanities theorize that human musicality arose via an interplay of cultural invention and biological evolution, or “gene-culture coevolution.” This chapter offers ten concepts to help guide productive cross-disciplinary discussions on this topic. Such interactions across traditional disciplinary boundaries are needed to propel deep explorations of human musicality. These explorations are important for the study of human origins because musicality may prove to be a model system for exploring cognitive gene-culture coevolution, a process increasingly thought to be central to the evolution of the human mind.

“…167 As Joseph Auner has shown, Schoenberg was likewise rejecting "concessions" to audiences and performers even as he worked to make his work more accessible. 168 Much like Britten, he simultaneously courted public attention and was repulsed by it. 169 Schoenberg's relationship to critics was equally paradoxical.…”

Schoenberg as Sound Student: Pierrot’s Klang

Schoenberg expended enormous energies on rethinking what sound could be and what it could mean in ways that anticipate and can be illuminated by sound studies. Focusing on Schoenberg’s understanding of the word Klang, this chapter explores the creative process and reception of Pierrot lunaire in the context of his writings on “sound,” one of the many possible translations of the term. Approaching Schoenberg’s music and his writings in Style and Idea and elsewhere from the vantage point of sound studies can attune us to his interests in destabilizing the boundaries not only between timbre, melody, and harmony, but also between music, sound, and noise, and between sound and our lived experience. The wide-ranging ramifications of his conception of Klang are evident in the ways that he engages with many aspects of music and its technologies and media while also going beyond specifically musical contexts to understand sound as a fundamental dimension of our thought and creativity, our experience, and our ways of relating with each other and our world.
