"From the House of the Dead" by Janacek

With this work, whose poetic and sound world is close to that of Alban Berg's Wozzeck, Janacek proposes a non-atonal alternative to the expressionism of the second Viennese school. The dramatic power and the charge of social denunciation are similar in the two Authors' works. In Berg's work, the dramatic charge is reached more by means of the strident dissonances, while here a similar effect is achieved through the rhythmic excitement.
